Klappentext These poems were inspired by the loss of poet Conrad Hilberry's wife of fifty-six years, Marion. While the poems in this volume delve into the initial emptiness and hopelessness of grieving, the poet's connections to the natural world, music and other people ultimately bring him back into the present while still acknowledging and honouring the past. The work of a skilled poet with a lifetime of experience, this collection displays Hilberry's mastery of form. Zusammenfassung Formally sophisticated poems trace the arduous journey from grief to a renewed appreciation of life.
