About

Alessandrina Lerner is the author of four books. All 3 of her Poetry books, "The Essence of Love" (Sep'09), "Spiritual Metamorphosis" (Feb'10) and "Have You Seen My Childhood" (Mar'10) are adorned with beautiful illustrations made by the author's daughter, a precocious 10-year old Artist, Amandine Love Lerner. Alessandrina's poetry does not only use the poetic imagery and innate musicality of words but also aspires to take the readers on a journey to the core of themselves through inspirational poems of a meditative nature. Alessandrina is also the author of a novel, "Spiritual Enlightenment in the Age of Cybersex" (Dec' 09), a comedic spiritual gem which introduces Spiritual teachings with humor and a real urban flavor, making them accessible to a modern, and maybe a little less spiritually inclined crowd.

Alessandrina Lerner has been writing poetry since she was 8, and wrote her first short novel when she was 12. Though she left her childhood dreamworld, obtained an MBA in International Finance from French Ivy league University Paris IX- Dauphine, and went on to pursue a high profile career in the world of International Finance, Alessandrina never forgot her true love and kept cultivating a passion for writing all throughout, continuing to write poetry and short stories as a hobby, whenever time allowed.

Traveling to over 55 countries in the context of her career, she fulfilled the explorative part of her dream, yet found herself seeking more meaningful experiences to further nourish her soul. Motherhood pushed her further in that direction, propping her to quit her job and start training with a Spiritual Indian Master to become a Yoga Therapist, now her primary occupation since 2001.

Story Behind The Book

I've been writing poetry ever since I was 8 years old. About a year ago, I decided to go through all the poems I've written over the past 20 years and put together a Collection of all the poems that capture, "The Essence of Love"... As I was getting ready for publication, I thought it would be great idea to complement the poems with beautiful illustrations. Since my 10-year old daughter is a talented upcoming Artist, I asked her to come onboard and be a part of this project. She read all the poems, imbibed herself with their meaning and the overall feeling of unconditional love, and made amazingly beautiful drawings that capture the essence of my poetry and that of love too....

Reviews

Review by Laura Ann Ford for “The Essence of Love” by Alessandrina Lerner The Essence of Love by Alessandrina Lerner is unique collection of poetry and songs, conveying a message of love, hope and healing. These simple pieces inspire the reader to meditate on the love that bonds us together instead of the hatred and anger that tears the world apart. Adorned with beautiful artwork created by Alessandrina’s young daughter, this book would make a wonderful gift for art and poetry lovers alike. I give it four hearts… an easy and uplifting read. -Laura Ann Ford, Author of McCullen <a href="http://lauraannford.webs.com/">http://lauraannford.webs.com</a> Note: All reviews are given honestly and without bias.
