MY INSPIRING PERSON
Hello, my
name is Ririn and now i will tell you about someone who inspired me to write
more and more because she is a writer. Her name is Dewi Lestari Simagunsong.
Her nick name is Dee Lestari. She is a poem and prose-writer, songwriter and
singer. Dee was born in Bandung, West Java on
20 January 1976; she was the fourth of five children born to a religius
Christian family. After graduating high school, she attended Parahyangan
Catholic University and graduated wiyh a degree in International Relations.
She wrote a lot of books, and i have
read almost of all her books and i think none of them is not exceptional.
Almost of all her books is a novel or poem-prose anthology. Honestly, i like
read many kind of book genres, but i very like poem anthology. And i think her
poem is very nudge with her beautiful combination words.
Her words can make anyone who read
feel the emotions that she want to be sent in her book which on average is
about the love story, she conveyed her message in a different way. She always
put scintific things, with the genius and beautiful language, but not
excessive.
In 2001, Dee released her first
novel, titled Kesatria, Putri dan Bintang
Jatuh (The Knight, Princess, and the Falling Stars), it is also firstbook in
Supernova series, she continued with Akar
(Roots); Petir (Thunder) and Partikel (Particle). That books was very
amazing, they are about love story, urban life, science, religy, and many
things.
Complicated, but quite briliant. I
loved the touch of poem in her novels. The poem make us to think about what is
the meaning of the content, becase Dee can take any themes and imagery to
convey. I really like poem, i love to read poem, and sometimes i make a poem.
And Dee’s poem is inspired me a lot.
