Sobre IBD

'Life, Love and the Pursuit of Happiness' is a personal collection of poems written as the author’s private thoughts on love and life when she was in her early teens and continued writing over the next twenty years. The poetry is an expression of all the fears, joys, disappointments and exhilaration that most teenage, twenty and thirty-something’s feel. As an accumulation of private thoughts that were not written for publication, the book lifts a corner of the mask that we all wear as a public façade. That is why it is so easy to relate to. Dip into any of the pages here and you will find some connection to the words and the feelings they conjure up. You’ve been there. that’s how it felt. a 'that could be me!' moment. Curl up with 'Life, Love and the Pursuit of Happiness', put on some music, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy!
