Overview

"In ""rolling through time"", poet Dinh Le Doan, embarks on a lyrical exploration of the passage of time, weaving together the thematic threads of nature, seasons, and personal reflection across seventy poems. Le's mastery of language is evident as he skillfully blends the literal and metaphorical, employing devices such as personification and onomatopoeia to enrich his vivid depictions of seasonal transitions and human experiences. The collection opens with ""Through a Dark Autumn,"" setting the tone with its nuanced portrayal of autumn's dual nature-visually stunning yet foreboding. This poem exemplifies Le Doan's ability to capture the essence of a moment, a recurring motif throughout the book. His engineering background, particularly his involvement in the Canadian Space Industry, subtly informs his poetic perspective, lending a unique analytical depth to his contemplation of time and space. Le Doan's poetry is deeply rooted in Canadian literary traditions, yet it transcends geographical boundaries, reflecting universal themes of life, change, and endurance. This first collection by Le is not merely a set of poems but a journey through the cyclical nature of life, inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences of time and existence. The careful editing and selection of poems enhances the book's appeal, making it a noteworthy contribution to CanLit. It is a compelling read for anyone fascinated by the poetic interplay of nature and time."
