Amanda Hall's epic poem of 600 formal Shakespearean sonnets, The Gift of Life, draws heavily on sacred heart symbolism, as it relates to the themes of Love, Life, and Liberty. Her artistic defense of the free society upholds the love, or Eros, that is at the core of any creative enterprise. Here she will maintain that the heart, rather than the dollar sign, is the proper producer’s symbol, and best weapon against threats to liberty.
