Bøger af Andreea Sandu

In Collateral Damage, her third poetry volume and follow-up to 2010's Until Eighteen, Sandu writes from the viewpoint of someone in-between: somewhat grown, somewhat on her own. By placing the ordinary in a framework of the extraordinary, Sandu explores maturity, and investigates the question of just what the collateral damage of all that newfound maturity is.

In 1920s-era New York City, a young girl from a rags-to-riches family must face a life-altering tragedy which forces her to question everything she ever knew. At 17 years old, it seemed that Jennie Callahan had had everything handed to her: money, a great NYC apartment, and every opportunity. A sudden accident, however, lands her in the hospital clinging to life. In a coma yet still mentally active, Jennie finds her mind wandering to her rural childhood, the pains of her past - and the boy she left behind - for the first time in years. When her recovery goes wrong, things only get more complicated. Soon she finds herself struggling to grow up, dealing with a family falling apart, and torn between her new fiance and her old love. Jennie must draw on her own strength to overcome the chaos in her life and find love in all the right places.

"Youth waxes and wanes/while the moon stays the same." In Breaking the Moon, Sandu's fourth poetry volume and follow-up to 2015's Collateral Damage, an old soul in a young body transitions into adulthood, discovering both its zenith and its nadir along the way.

The Anthology is the complete collection of the first three volumes of poetry by Andreea Sandu. It comprises I Will Be There (2007), Until Eighteen (2010), and Collateral Damage (2015).
