As the title would imply, Matrimony is the story of a long marriage, a family, and the inevitable changes that occur over time. Through her poetry, Laurel Feigenbaum depicts her husband's last years of life, along with her thoughts, feelings, and events they coped with, including his six-week stay in a near-by, skilled nursing facility. Married for 66 years when he passed away, the poet shares her journey of learning to live alone for the first time, her grief, and recognition of the natural aging process as it affects us all.

Autorenporträt
Laurel Feigenbaum was born and raised in San Francisco and Beverly Hills. She credits her interest in poetry to Wordsworth and her father who loved word play, and often quoted lines he admired. After careers in education and business, in her early eighties she gathered courage to begin writing. Poetry is her way of exploring and coping with the often-absurd world in which we live and the inevitable changes that come. Matriarch of her family now, she is the mother of three, grandmother of seven, and great-grandmother of eight. Author of The Daily Absurd (2015) and Matrimony (The Poetry Box, 2020), her most recent work can be found in The Amsterdam Quarterly and The Marin Poetry Center Anthology. She can be heard reading her poetry on Voetica.com.
