Trinidadian author and poet, Lasana Philbert, delivers yet again in his second collection of poems titled "Reflections: Life in Hindsight." In this book he goes more in depth with his poems by exploring and highlighting his experiences as a writer and traveler. Put differently, this collection of poems was not only influenced by his own life experiences but also by the life experiences of the many people he interacted with on his travels around the world. In some poems, his empathy towards the people he met on his journeys is quiet evident; while in other poems he questions the complexities that exist all around them. Most importantly, in every aspect of his writing, he ties their experiences in with his own. Creating a multidimensional picture of life that compels the reader to reflect on their own life. His writing style is an unorthodox combination of classical and contemporary poetry prose, making him one of the most unique poets of our time. His expressions at times sound more like philosophical thoughts being thrust on to paper. Readers will love this book if they're interested in deeply examining the intricacies of life through poetry literature.
