There is also a running dialogue of the fire that will eventually kill Joan, and the poems of it talking about her-longing for her. There were a lot of inanimate objects that were in the point of view of the poetry talking about Joan, which did seem a bit strange. But some of these poems didn’t feel necessary or really adding much of anything to the story of Joan. I had to keep pushing my way through the book and the poetry. Voices is hard to get into and never really finds a rhythm, at least to me. Anyway, there isn’t many books, especially YA on Joan of ARC, till now apparently (there’s two coming out this year, including this one). Women are the future and the power as of late (lots going on people), also she is a role model to some (not the dying part). But it seems that she is gaining popularity because she was a strong young woman in her time, and as it is now. I had heard a little about her, outside of religion (not one to read that kind of lit or classes).

Review: Since hearing about that this year 2019, we would be getting two young adult novels about Joan of ARC. Voices: The Final Hours of Joan of Arc by David Elliott
