New Poetry Book, 'a Shaft of Light,' from Author and Filmmaker Ann Huang Now Available for Purchase

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Oct. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- a Shaft of Light is a poetry collection about nostalgia. The overarching story touches on dissipation and dis-appropriation of human synergies with regard to geopolitical and technological upheavals. Readers are encouraged to look back at the extinction of dinosaurs, a time when the earth faced its greatest loss. The question is: Are we next?

With the recent release of her book, a Shaft of Light, Huang would like to welcome readers to review her latest collection of surrealist poetry.

Huang is thrilled at the response for her book thus far. As a token of her appreciation, she is offering a free NatureBright Deluxe Light Therapy Box for those who review a Shaft of Light on Amazon. Huang is also a co-founder of NatureBright Company, a household name for therapeutic lights, which have helped over one million happy customers obtain a healthier lifestyle.

Leslie Ullman, author of Library of Small Happiness, describes the book as being "inhabited by a shapeshifting 'you,' who is sometimes the speaker, sometimes an intimate other, and sometimes, perhaps, figures mentioned along the way."
