The Poem Stands on Its Head by the Window gives us indelible portraits of a family's larger-than-life members, their loves, losses, traditions and experiences-from the uncle who sold wrecked cars and died in a car wreck to haunting tales of Holocaust survivors whose pain reverberates through the generations. The poems return again to the balm of nature and daily life with always the reminder of the ever present possibilities of evil and above all, the need for forgiveness. These poems startle the reader into new awareness of the richness, pain and humanity of our lives.
