Dear Readers,

I hope you are finding your way to my new book SURVIVOR CAFE: The Legacy of Trauma and the Labyrinth of Memory. As I mention in my author's note in the opening pages, this is a book I've been writing my whole life. And although it's my first book of nonfiction, when you read and absorb it, you'll see how many of the themes and images have haunted my novels and poems and essays....

I'm inserting here a number of links to interviews and reviews and excerpts. May these help to deepen and inspire more conversation.
