The story in poems reads like a movie and exposes the bitter compromises a couple will make with abuse and love. Lyrical, accomplished poems examine and ultimately reveal "why we stay" as the poet recovers herself and her love through the language of healing. Courageous, honest, sometimes funny, the poet writes the book her friends said she'd have to wait to publish until her husband died, but he read the poems and, as proof of the couple's bond, told her to go ahead and send it out, "It's good and it's your life. You deserve to be heard."

Autorenporträt
A poem is the face of what we've lived. Everything is soaked in all that came before. Alice Campbell Romano lived 13 years in Rome, Italy, turning Italian sceneggiature into American movie scripts. She married a dashing Italian; they raised their family in Rome and in Los Angeles where Alice became President of The Independent Writers of Southern California (IWOSC) and worked with independent film and TV producers as well as for Universal Studios. Alice is a published and anthologized poet. She is an active member of The Hudson Valley Writers' Center in the Hudson Highlands where she grew up amid tall oaks that make an appearance in The Consolation of Geometry, her first book.
