Elvis Presley - Are You Lonesome Tonight Radio of Resistance

    • Bücher

You know, I came across Elvis Presley’s “Are You Lonesome Tonight” once, when I was struck by the beauty of the moon and took a step down the abyss too quickly. And though the abyss was beautiful, and though only by lying underneath it, I can truly see how sad and lonely the moon was beneath all her beauty, I swore to myself I would never do it again.

In this episode, strangely, we will not discuss Elvis Presley as the reigning king that he was in his lifetime. Instead, we will focus solely on the song that haunts me and my friends. The song that, though not as popular as Elvis himself, always brings up the tears of nostalgia to anyone and everyone who listens. As Elvis's voice charmingly and sweetly pours drops of honey into my ears, the tingling sadness of a love that is no longer here shelters my loneliness. And yes, I am lonesome tonight. If that poisonous love had ever touched your heart as it did mine, would you like to sit down and share this lonesome night with me?

Author's Bio: Thanh Dinh graduated from the University of Toronto with distinction. Although she specialized in business management, her passion for writing and literature can burn down a whole forest. She had joined the Creative Writing Workshop at the University of Toronto and achieved a full grade and recognition from her mentor and professor, Richard Greene. As a literary enthusiast, her reading list spans across the globe - from North America's famous writers like Hemingway and Faulkner to the lesser-known Asian authors like Kenzaburo Oe and Yukio Mishima. Heavily influenced by the poets' tireless search for a cure to solitude, she resorts to solving that question using words and tiny stories to show the beauty of the living world and the scars of life's surviving veterans.  #literary #bookreview #milankundera #mentalhealth #iterarydiscussion #booksummary
