Just before her death in 2007 at the age of eighty-four, Grace
Paley completed this wise and poignant book of poems. Full of
memories of friends and family and incisive observations of life in
both her beloved hometown, New York City, and rural Vermont, the
poems are sober and playful, experimenting with form while
remaining eminently readable. They explore the beginnings and ends
of relationships, the ties that bind siblings, the workings of
dreams, the surreal strangeness of the aging body--all imbued with
her unique perspective and voice. Mournful and nostalgic, but also
ruefully funny and full of love, "Fidelity "is Grace Paley's
passionate and haunting elegy for the life she was leaving behind.
