Summary:
"Classic Millennial: Classic Poems as Interpreted by a Millennial uses the poetry of Yeats, Frost, Dickinson, and more; reimagined by a millennial woman. Readers will find similarities with the author through her love of furbabies, her smartphone, and coffee. She also tackles more serious subjects of climate change, self-esteem, and cyberbullying. She accomplishes this all while staying with the styles of the classic poems they are modeled from, "The Raven" becomes "The Boomer" and "The Road Not Taken" becomes "The Commuter Path Taken." While focused on Millennial issues, this poetry collection is enjoyable and relatable for all generations."-- Provided by publisher.
