vViIrRuUsS: I never forgot

 

The book we shall be reviewing today is 'vViIrRuUsS: I never forgot' penned by Jazalyn. It is a post apocalyptic poetry book which tells the story of three different viruses threating the human life. 


Jazalyn is a brilliant author whose books have been featured in prominent lists on Amazon UK, Amazon US and Amazon AU. She combines to forms of literature: Prose and poetry to bring out a beautiful story for the readers. 


It is a futuristic book that explores the world which is trapped between viruses and deals with the human emotions such as anxiety, depression, corroded emotionally, feeling like the whole world is against you, ego issues and so on. Having faced with the pandemic, Corona Virus, the readers will find this book much relatable.  The author has also expressed some conspiracy theories that will make the readers think hard on the current situations. 





One of my favourite poems in the book is :

I told her the truth

Not necessarily to be with me

 But to protect her;

 But she can’t see

 She doesn’t want to know the truth;

 It will destroy her illusions;

 She just wants to be happy;

 Even inside a fake happiness

 She is not there yet;

 In her place I wasn’t either;

 I understood later;

 Perhaps she will too

 But I did my duty

 And I had to warn her;

 I know one day

 She’ll understand

 She will remember me

 And then she will see

 But right now

 I have to let her be

 She needs to realize

 And when she does

 I hope it’s not too late

 To save herself


If you are a fan of Veronika Roth or like Science fiction, this is your pick.
