The Arts of Literary Criticism: Thrillers in Tanka, Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798991873901)

Sat perched, the crows watch,
cawing at terrors and fears,
painted for depravity:
An Ode to The Arts,
with Tanka laced through Thrillers.

From the Cat Ellington(TM) Literary Collection and the Cat Ellington(TM) Poetry Collection, Quill Pen Ink Publishing proudly presents The Arts of Literary Criticism: Thrillers in Tanka, Book 1, the first release in The Arts, a new series by the incomparable Cat Ellington, which succeeds the famous Reviews by Cat Ellington literary series and its spin-off Unique Critique Trilogies progression.

Cat Ellington continues her practice in literary criticism with Thrillers in Tanka, offering a new artistic take on her one-of-a-kind analyses by infusing Tanka poetry and black crows painted in watercolor to reflect the nature of the thriller genre and the spirits of the fictional characters under her critique in the issue - a personal touch that symbolizes the author's singular style of creativity in the literary arts.

Included on the pages of The Arts of Literary Criticism: Thrillers in Tanka, Book 1 are Cat Ellington's reviews of One of the Girls by Lucy Clarke, The New One by Evie Green, Symphony of Secrets by Brendan Slocumb, Gone Tonight by Sarah Pekkanen, What the Neighbors Saw by Melissa Adelman, and Dark Corners (Rachel Krall, #2) by Megan Goldin, among others.

The works of Tanka poetry on these pages coincide with each book under review and include "The Great Proverbs," "The Dawn of AI," "The Way of Death," "The Dirty River S̶e̶i̶n̶e̶ Sin," "A T̶a̶l̶e̶ Tell of Delusions," and many more.

So delight in the written verse and marvel at the painted artworks as you delve into a rousing series of The Arts.

Cat Ellington's original unique critique? It's the art of literary criticism.
