'Life, like a poem, is a series of choices' In her long-awaited
debut memoir, You Could Make This Place Beautiful, award-winning
poet Maggie Smith explores in lyrical vignettes the end of her
marriage and the beginning of a surprising new life. With the
spirit of reflection and empathy she's known for, Smith interweaves
snapshots of a life with meditations on secrets, anger, forgiveness
and narrative itself. It is a story about a mother's fierce and
constant love for her children, and a woman's love and regard for
herself. Above all, this memoir is an argument for possibility.
Smith reveals how, in the aftermath of loss, we can discover our
power and make something new. Something beautiful.
