Darcher illustrates for us how the love we carry for our family holds us steady and can also traumatize us. There is a deft touch in the imagery and music in these poems. And after reading them, we remember even those we have forgotten and are thankful for the odd comfort that they have been in our lives.-JEFF KNORR, author of Color of a New Country
