Reseña del libro "Devil Dog (en Inglés)"
My name is Vincent Placanico; I am an Army veteran, a college student, a husband and father, and a full-time employee. I have had many experiences in my 40 years, some good, some bad, some pleasurable, and some painful. I have learned to accept the good with the bad, and the pleasure has exceeded the pain. This book is a series of poems that I wrote while taking a long, honest look at who I am. It takes you from my early years of drug and alcohol abuse through suffering from the death of my father, to how I look at the world now. Most of the poems are in narrative form and are easy to understand. Some of them tell a story about certain parts of my life, and others paint a picture of emotions that I felt, like saying goodbye to my wife and kids when I deployed to Iraq. When I write, I try to put myself in the moment that I am writing about, so the reader will feel the emotions that I felt. Some of my poems are sad and angry, and others are funny; many are just a look at the world through my eyes.
