Singing Riptide charts Cheryl Wilder's journey from personal, all-consuming shame through the intergenerational forgiveness that made self-forgiveness possible; to self-realization and belonging. A companion to Anything That Happens (Press 53)-the collection that chronicles the root of Wilder's shame: a car wreck at twenty that left a friend with traumatic brain injury and in a coma for four months, and her in jail for DUI. As Richard Jackson states: Singing Riptide is an intense book of memory and regret, but also a marvelous triumph in the fact that [Wilder's] poetry itself creates a way for both poet and reader of this rewarding book to discover what Ross Gay would also call 'unabashed joy, ' and yes, redemption.
