Textul de pe ultima copertă
At age fifty-four, Heather Trexler Remoff was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. February Light, beautifully crafted, evocative yet spare, joyous and truthful, is Heather's very personal memoir of her fight with the disease - and her triumph. February Light is part medical diary, for Heather describes openly the stages of her disease and her struggle to confront them; part nature journal, for the book is written month by month and examines parallels between what is happening in Heather's body and the outdoors; and part chronicle of the richness of small-town life recollected in glimpses of Heather's childhood as well as life in Osprey Lakes.
Descriere
At age 59, just after moving with her husband to the tiny community of Osprey Lakes, Pennsylvania, Heather Remoff was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. This book is part medical diary, with details of the disease; part nature journal, as month by month what is happening in Heather's body parallels the outdoors; and part chronicle of the richness of small town daily life. An inspiring true story.
