About the Widow's Book of Moons After years of living in remote places in Alaska it is no wonder that the author knows the way snow falls or glaciers groan. Life alone at 60 below zero places a burden of sharp reality on a person, and the lessons learned can not be erased no matter what environment envelopes you. There is danger in frivolous inattention to the moment. This wisdom combines with Buddhist mindfulness practice to examine closely the layered processes of grief. The Widow's Book of Moons is a collection of poems written after the sudden death of her husband. The poems are moments in the experience of loss and the understanding of impermanence in all aspects of life. Grief, humor and curiosity sometimes combine in observation of wild nature and the mind.
