Backcover Description: Chessly Nesci is the daughter of New York Times beast selling author; Nancy Taylor Rosenberg. She has written in a journal all throughout her life, but never seriously until her father passed. It was a way to let the feelings out without being a burden to anyone. Writing became her best friend, and she was able to look at her words and heal from them.
Book Review/s to share: Cause and Effect Poetry by Chessly Nesci (2009, AG Press) is a diverse collection of poems and poetic short story/essay/ruminations. They range from recession-era ("Economy," "Dream House") to romantic ("Dream," "Crush") to inspiring ("Strength") to fairy-tale-like ("The Hidden One"). Along the way, Chessly meditates on such topics as the tragic loss of her father, an emotionally abusive past relationship, and personal insecurity. She deals with these weighty topics with a hopeful, yet realistic, determination. Which is not to say she can't be lighthearted: see, for example, her loving ode to coffee.
The book concludes with eleven short-short stories, the best of which are "Flying," "Summer Love" and "Blind Date." (But that's just me; I love romance!) I look forward to more from this talented poet.
