Recenzii

"Jane Lazarre combines Adrienne Rich's brazen approach to plumbing the psyche through language with a certain belief in personal narrative; her intense anxious attachment to her two sons; and her struggle to write." - Mamm magazine "Reading Lazarre's latest is like spending time with a friend. It's a story bound to move anyone who has ever experienced love or loss." - Publishers Weekly "Wet Earth and Dreams is a beautiful, engrossing, enormously moving book. It stirred me to the depths." - Judith Rossner "[Lazarre's] best and most powerful work." - Phillip Lopate, author of Portrait of My Body and The Art of the Personal Essay

"She has it right! Perhaps even workers in the field will learn something about how patients feel. Thank you Jane Lazarre from all of us."--Lucille Clifton, author of "The Terrible Stories"

Descriere

Following in the tradition of her critically acclaimed memoirs, Lazarre brilliantly interweaves her struggle with breast cancer with other stories of recent and past losses. She draws strength from her faith in the power of storytelling to make bearable the seemingly unbearable.
