Lessons in Buoyancy is a book about women's lives, and their transformation through time. Divided into three parts, The Maiden, The Mother, The Crone, it's based upon the Celtic archetype of the Tri-Goddess. Each section contains poems that explore joy, loss, endurance, and continuing rebirth. The book recognizes the value of growing older, of embracing the Crone, (revealed here as a being of wisdom and grace), but it's written for women of any age. If you're a woman seeking to understand your journey, this book is for you. You will find a kinship of women who share the mystery of the Tri-Goddess; the author invites you to commune with them as you read this poetry. That communion will be a unique, life altering experience.
