A One-Star Night


en Limba Engleză Paperback
With a humorous, subversive, yet poignantly touching flair, Sonja Ciotti has crafted her world-observations into accessible and entertaining poetry. Sonja Ciotti champions the cause of two-term United States Poet Laureate, Billy Collins, to get "poetry in public places: poetry on busses, poetry on subways, on billboards, on cereal boxes." In this collection, Sonja Ciotti takes the reader on an amusing journey through everyday life events such as picking up the mail, dealing with corporate jargon, recalling the perks of being a kid, and loving/being tortured by the great outdoors. Underneath the witty demeanor of these observations about life, people, and nature hides a depth of soul that resonates on an authentic and empathetic level.

Notă biografică

Sonja Ciotti's poetry career started in 1993 when a poem about a sunset she wrote as a fourth grader from rural Illinois was chosen as an official selection for a youth poetry anthology. Indeed, a poet was born. It wasn't until she was much older and wiser (so probably in sixth grade) that she realized that the work of every one of her fourth grade classmates who wrote a poem had been included in the anthology as well. Too late; the fourth grade spark ignited a lifelong love for reading and writing poetry. In her undergraduate studies, Sonja minored in English and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. She continued on to earn her Master of Science degree in Marketing and currently works in the field of marketing and advertising, specializing in branding and graphic design. But in the quiet moments, Sonja can be found jotting down her poignant and humorous life observations, patching them together in the most beautiful artistic medium - the written word. She lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with her husband, Zak.
