Long before the Pandemic locked us all into our homes, my personal period of isolation began with my 2017 diagnosis of Acute Myleoid Leukemia, a particularly deadly and fast acting cancer, writes Olive L. Sullivan.
The resulting collection of poetry paints a picture of loss, but also of survival in the face of loss. Skiving through layers of / loss and sorrow, honing in on what matters, this book shows us how one woman faces her own impending death, the loss of her husband and her father, and comes out on the other side, very much alive, only truth remaining.
