Shallow question, is that her natural hair color, correct me if I'm wrong but it looks lighter than we've ever seen.

I think she has the same colour since the late 2014. How bright it looks depends on the lighting. I might be wrong.

I wonder what she does to change her hair's texture because it is naturally very curly :)

Guys, just went back from reading Hollow of the hand in MIlano
WOAH!!! She's very beautiful!!! and calm and nice, mostly beautiful!
had a chance to make her sign my copy of huge version of the book, gave her a quick note and a postcard
asked if she likes the city, said she knows it and like it, but today hadn't time to get a tour 'cause she's being in Genova more time (my theory is growing :-D)
tell her to come back soon, she answered she'll be in town in October!!! YAY!!!!

You're very lucky!

Did she read all poems from the book? In Genoa she's done "Sight-Seeing, South of the River", which she hadn't read before. How about "A Guy Who Knows What the Fuck's Going On"?

Maybe she was saying something on stage between the poems?

I really love something about these pictures, she looks beautiful of course. Ive always thought she was very beautiful in a unique way. But also, she seems very relaxed and happy.

Ha degli occhi Stupendi!!! :)
very gentle and delicate, quite friendly.
The crowd was a little frozen, I was the only clapping hands once in a while, also said "Ciao!" and "Grazie!"
I've notes:
An interpreter was there and we were asked to Not take picturess or to ask about her music, wanted a poems-time only
180/200 people, not more. Then she came up on stage smiling. Cheered her. Then she explained the whole concept of the book and her trips with Seamus in Kosove and Afganistan. About this she said that is a place she always wanted to see

Kosovo:

On a dirt road
The abandoned village*
Chain Of keys
Dance on the mountain*
Where it begins

Afghanistan:

The Orange Monkey*
The guest room
Adhan
First shot*
The hand The beggars*
The boy*
An initiation*
Charikar
At the bird market*
The Glass*
Begging bowl*

then she introduced Washington D.C. session, looking for analogies between those places, 'cause that area has a leading role over there

African voices
Sight-seeing
To the oldes homo sapiens
On the corner of 1st and D*
Medicinals*
Throwing nothing

during performance photos displayed behind, after she recite poems were translated in italian, IMO with some little misunderstanding.
Best and longer session Afghanistan. My favourites *
cueing for signing met old and new friends. The book on sell was a paperback version, little. I had the Huge one!!! :D
she saw and said "Oh! is the big one!" and changed the pen with the silver one. she was very patient as I immediately Thank her for being there and the all the rest

I'm still on a natural high

Sorry, another shallow observation. Her skin is so beautiful, I'm half her age and I wouldn't mine waking up with her skin. I know, deep lol. I just love to look at her, not in a creepy way. I don't swing that way if you know what I mean, nothing sexual or Percy about it.
