The Purple Palace & other Poems is the debut Poetry collection by Artist Shayna Klee. The semi-autobiographical book is divided into two parts and takes place between two countries; Part I, "is a cloud a living thing?", takes place during the Author's tumultueuse teen years with tropical Florida as a backdrop. Part II, "Inside my Shell", explores themes of transformation as the Author creates a new life for herself in Paris, France. The poems in this collection explore the surreal rollercoaster of youth, the performance of identity, being an outsider and the tension between romantic idealism and the dystopic world in which the author finds herself. Her approach to her work as a visual artist is mirrored in her poetry style, which is accompanied by all original illustrations by the Author.

RollerCoaster is a poetic mix of serious and comical interludes .Steeped in emotional complexity from childhood to adulthood, marriage and divorce, raising children, fear and anger, passion and perseverance, losing pets, seeking spirituality, and loving family, this collection of poetry encompasses the depth and diversity of the ups and downs of life and its lessons. From the Canadian North to the Hawaiian Islands to the beaches on the Baja, this poetry ensemble was written with laughter and tears ... sometimes all on the same page. RollerCoaster is a reminder that life is full of highs and lows, moments of joy and sorrow, uncertainty and bold optimism. Rollercoaster by Marion Perrotta, is a collection of poems that capture these events and emotions over the course of 40 years. As a young girl growing up in a small northern town in Alberta, Canada, Perrotta was surrounded by a large and loving family. Yet she felt driven to find a life of her own, leading her to seek refuge in the written word. Poetry allowed her moments of absolute truth to her inner self, and it became her refuge and passion. As life passed, Perrotta continued to retreat to these lines, recording moments of pain and jubilation alike. Now this body of work, collected and saved over all those years, serves as a true reflection of her life: where she's been, what she has learned, and who she has become. Looking up and looking back onto the track over my shoulder, I realize this crazy ride has served to make me bolder. Whether 13 or 93, readers will find truth in these words to which they can relate and will be happy they went along for the ride.
