Lisa and Joe’s book is a compilation of heartfelt poems that have the ability to reach inside you and reveal a world you may have otherwise been unaware of. I find myself reading several passages over and over. A must read for those with emotional depth. - Steve Lynch (Professional Artist, Producer and Author of “Confessions of a Rock Guitarist.”) Lisa Manale’s writings provide a raw and real glimpse into her thoughts, emotions and experiences but delivered in a manner so kind and smooth that the reader becomes quickly enrapt with waves of nostalgia. Her passion for words and expression, her love for her father and the gift they share is clearly apparent in their work. I find myself rereading her poetry often when I need to connect to home and missing my own connection with my dad. - Rebecca Gast (Artist, Photographer, World Traveler) Lisa Manale possesses a depth of passion in her own individual way, sharing her art in poetic words of real feelings and true knowledge of what love is all about. Her Dad taught her well! I recommend “Carousel of Memories” and know you will enjoy it and take it to heart. - Charlie Souza (Songwriter, Author, Musician, Board Member Emeritus and Florida Musicians Hall of Fame.)
