About this listen

In this new collection of poems, essays, and flash fiction, the author once again exhibits her ability to write about both the light and dark sides of life. There are numerous poems and stories about nature: its kindness, cruelty, and wonder. There are frank expressions of the sadness and frustration she felt at the progressive loss of her eyesight and a poem about the social isolation that disability can bring. Other pieces, though, sing of joys as diverse as family closeness, the love of dogs, the delights of scents, and the power of the muse.

Thanks to Ann, Lillian and Vincent
Wow powerful set of poems.
I really enjoyed listening to them
I wish I could share these with my sight impaired friends.
I recently lost my vision in my right eye.
it's hard to come to terms with it.
after speaking to the amazing Lillian.

unless you have had any issues with your sight impairment or supporting someone who has.
this book will lift you up and dust you down.
I can not thank these guys enough.
