Lisa Hiton rated a book it was amazing If You Would Let Me by Maggie Dietz	Error rating book. Refresh and try again. Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Dietz gives us another haunting lyric. Her rendering of loss in music and image brings us into our own transgressions even in the deepest expanses of our capacity to love.
