A deeply humbling book of the sparest verse. How does one write so truthfully of a woman's pain at losing her daughter? How does one go there except through direct experience? Some of it is written with such tenderness, then some of it offers the bluntness of the hurt which goes on and on. I found it profoundly beautiful.

This collection of mostly three-line poems has captured grief (from the death of of the author's daughter) so clearly and effectively that you will be hard-pressed to get through it without tearing up.
