With unguarded bravery, Nyman takes us directly into the grief, pain, and loss that life has brought her. We walk with her through early childhood, seeing how her mother's inability to connect results in Nyman's anxiety and lack of trust. We feel her fear at a diagnosis of breast cancer. We bear witness to the loss of her breasts, her deep mourning, her grappling with mortality, and the ensuing process of self-discovery. Nyman shows us the wrenching pain of a family member's suicide and the relentless questions that follow. We explore the slippery shadows of the COVID-19 pandemic. She ponders issues of forgiveness, mindfulness, and the nature of time. Then Nyman turns to nature's exquisite beauty, forging a strong connection to its power and energy, its quiet joy. We learn from the trees, the stars, and the ocean. She gently releases us and lets us move on through her lessons. In this collection of poems-this journey of a life-no feeling goes untouched. This author shares deeply and cares deeply.
