"Like a great photographer, MARA BERGMAN celebrates the moment and
detail at the core of memory. Together, her poems show the great
changes families experience - the free and fearless life of a young
woman set alongside a dying mother hanging on so she can hold a
great-grandchild, the one-sided conversations we have with the
dead. Her dynamism is infectious - you are drawn into this family's
wonder, love, compassion, grief and happiness. Bergman's poems
remind me of Pablo Neruda's belief in the driving force of love:
'Hold on to that, don't let it get away ...' and one of the fi nal
poems, 'The Happiness', delivers the book's message: 'Before it
leaves, I will bury it deep enough to save.' After reading these
poems, you'll feel braced and ready, you'll feel wiser and more
generous, you'll want to hold on to moments that contain your own
astonishment." JACKIE WILLS
