Poetry. "I STOP WAITING FOR YOU by Mary Jo Bona is an immensely moving meditation on grief for the twin brother who dies from AIDS; the ghosts of her other dead and lost populate this book as well. Those losses are balanced out by her poems that explore her Italian American heritage and her love poems. This book is a way of mourning her lost brother, a way of keeping him alive in her memory. It is also a celebration of the woman she loves who makes her own life worth living. What an accomplished, beautiful, amazing book! I read it all in one sitting and look forward to reading it again and again."--Maria Mazziotti Gillian…mehr
