“Thousand Thoughts is an unusual book. Linguistic theory says poems can be written only in one's mother tongue, Laura proves that theory wrong. Her equal fluency in English and Russian is striking, she is a natural poet.
Laura's language is lucid, her thoughts profound, and her mood optimistic even when sad. She handles several themes, but love, longing for love, and loss of love stand out. Readers who have experienced emotional ups and downs in relationships will find an expression through Laura's pen.”
