Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. Poetry. Hybrid Genre. To Call Sarah Adleman'S Memoir Profound And Beautiful Would Be A Grossly Inadequate Attempt To Describe A Brilliant, Deeply Moving Yet Unflinchingly Unsentimental Exploration Of Grief I Could Never In My Life Have Begun To Imagine, At Least Not Until Now: A Blendedgenre Collage Of Historical, Scientific, Autobiographical And Deeply Spiritual Nonfiction, Poetry And Prose Poetry, Including The Poetry Written By Adleman'S Wise, Remarkable Mother. This Memoir Asks Some Of The Most Difficult Questions Anyone Can Ask: How Is Acceptance And Forgiveness Even Possible In The Face Of Unspeakable Cruelty And Violence? How Is It Possible Even To Describe, Much Less To Find The Right Metaphors For, Unspeakable Pain And Grief? Yet Through Her Most Profound Struggles, Adleman Finds A Way, Taking Us On Long Journeys By Train, Across Snowy Landscapes, Even To Sweat Lodges And Tibet, Making A Deep Dive Into Such A Complex Array Of Extended Metaphors That She Can Finally Bring Herself, And Us, To A Kind Of Understanding And Acceptance. Before Now, I Could Not Have Imagined A More Courageous, Lifechanging Memoir Than This, Yet Here It Is, A Loving Tribute To Adleman'S Longgrieving Father And Lost Mother.Lex Williford
