What a fine full song this is! Bodies come and go— sometimes a piece at a time—but the heart, that whole heart, strides each horizon. Thank you, Margaret Robison.
—Stephen and Ondrea Levine

Margaret Robison’s poems about recovering from a stroke are a true sign of what art can be and do under the most difficult circumstances. The poems take us right to the heart of the matter, and are a transfusion of courage and beauty for those who must suffer pain and frustration and those who wish to understand. I welcome these poems with heartfelt praise.
