About

The book

This bilingual (English-Spanish) book,” Blooms in Life’s Last Stretch”, is a beautiful collection of poems by the author Liliana Luppi Dossola. She uses the human experience as subject matter to write this book, whatever phases people go through, the love phase, the loss, and the hope.

The book is divided in three chapters: Slices of Life, Worldwide Covid-19 Pandemic, and Reflections on Life’s Last Stretch. The first chapter contains snapshots of people found in different circumstances. The second chapter was written during the height of the pandemic, when uncertainty and fear kept us inside the home. The third chapter is more reflective and focuses on the author’s thoughts about life in the later years.

As a whole these poems show the mystery and beauty of the Universe and life on Earth, but also emphasizes the vulnerability that affect us all.
