Alexandra Elle: Live at Politics and Prose

Alexandra Elle discusses her book, Neon Soul, at Politics and Prose on 4/18/18.

In her third book of poems, Elle a D.C-based writer, continues the project of life-lessons, self-celebration, and communitybuilding she began in Words from a Wanderer and Love in My Language. Using vivid imagery and building on contrasts, Elle traces her journey from a turbulent youth to stable adulthood as a wife and mother. While she draws on her own experiences as someone once broken and now healing, Elle writes without self-pity or shame. She follows each piece with prompts, actively encouraging readers to engage with her in their own explorations of creativity and self-work.
