A Book of Travel is poetry in the cast of the moon inside the broken dance of love that flowers into the New Age Renaissance Republique of Poetry by Margaret Saine and Subterranean Blue Poetry. The title of the book "A Book of Travel" was inspired by Evliya Celebi a 17th Century Turkish philosopher's work of the same name. In this work he writes on his travels through Europe and makes observations of the different languages, it is an ideation on the Ottoman Empire by a Muslim. She also writes that the poetry is inspired by landscape. Saine's work is infused with quotes from famous writers and contains translations in French, Italian, German and Macedonian. This poetry is enigmatic, sometimes a subtle humour, a subtle dislocation within the broken architecture of the old cityscape economy. As if traveling by train, watching out the windows, someone who lives in foreign lands, a place of mystery, a place of the past, the haunts of an old love. A Poet for Peace, there is an activist theme to the writing, "The Story of Jorge Peña Hen" is about the famous musician who was executed by the Pinochet dictatorship. Through the broken dance, the light shines in, it is as if she is writing Emily Dickenson out of the box. A great read for the long winter nights, A Book of Travel by Margaret Saine.
