Metanoia's Revelation Leila Fortier

Metanoia's Revelation is the author's personal journey of discovery and transformation through poetry, marking various events and stages in her life. This is a testament of obstacle, loss, survival, hope, renewal, and change. Above all, this book is a deeply imbedded reminder that life in itself is a constant mystery. This collection of poetry embodies evident shifts in style, form, and expression, bringing the reader through the growth and metamorphosis of the author as a person as well as a writer. The design of her poetry is often noted as an art unto itself. Through the trinity of the physical, spiritual, and intellectual components of human nature, the author strives to reach into the heart of those elements and tantalize the senses through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic blankets of metaphor. The author revels in evoking and capturing the reader to find themselves within her work as if written directly to or for the individual and speaking from the marrow of their own life experiences.
