"When your heart breathes and thy lung beats, you know that you have fallen in love"
Nadwan Rosetta
In this collection of poems, Nadwan Rosetta has revived the sonnet genre in English (which has faded and almost extinguished since 1969) and developed it into the free verse scheme (so his definition for a sonnet is any 14-line poem regardless of its rhyme, on the contrary of the classical Petrarchan and Shakespearean types of sonnet).
In fact, these sonnets are based on a crush he had for an American actress he once liked.
Moreover, you might find some of the sonnets are written apart from that crush and based on historical characters or events and were emerged among these sonnets of innocent love.
You may also experience the gradual evolution of his poetry, from the first poems he has written with their simple, naive and even surreal style to the deeper metaphoric ones with their genuine use of figurative speech in the second half of this collection.
