Poetry. In THE SILENCE OF AN EMPTY HOUSE, Maria Mazziotti Gillan
comes to the limit of human experience, stares death in the face,
and struggles to keep moving. These moments she faces and speaks of
so clearly are unavoidable, and the long illness and death of her
husband, Dennis, is her personal version of the fundamental
struggle we all face. THE SILENCE OF AN EMPTY HOUSE speaks of
forgiveness, guilt and grace. With courage and a stubborn refusal
to look away from the terrors that surround her on so many levels,
Gillan documents the parallels between our own struggles with
mortality and the struggles being played out on the world stage
today. From wars to climate change to the death of whole species to
her own struggles with the deaths of her husband, family and
friends, she makes each of these battles the reader's own, and
gives order and meaning to those fundamental things that otherwise
threaten to capsize us.
