Living into Inheritance: A Winter Solstice Observance
By: Gabriele Ulrike Stauf, Ph.D
Living into Inheritance: A Winter Solstice Observance is a collection of poems describing a woman's journey. As in most life journeys, the poems reflect ambivalence, self-doubt, daring, loss, and resolution to questions that accompany the unfolding of life. Resolution to struggles is possible and revelatory of deep truths.
The uniqueness of the book derives from the turns of phrase used to express emotions and questions. It reflects both the immigrant experience and the absence of a parental figure. The poet's point of view is shaped by these two aspects of her life. It is a true sense of community, especially for those readers whose life experiences have presented them with the task of reconciling loss and finding a path uniquely their own.
