A new anthology of prose and poetry from the prestigious Hudson Valley Women's Writing Group - seven older women from diverse backgrounds (academics, social workers, teachers and lawyers) who write from the collective perspective of being women-of-a-certain-age in a culture that tends to render older women invisible or irrelevant, and who share their unique perspectives on memory, joy, resistance, resilience, aging, and transformation.

Produktbeschreibung
A new anthology of prose and poetry from the prestigious Hudson Valley Women's Writing Group - seven older women from diverse backgrounds (academics, social workers, teachers and lawyers) who write from the collective perspective of being women-of-a-certain-age in a culture that tends to render older women invisible or irrelevant, and who share their unique perspectives on memory, joy, resistance, resilience, aging, and transformation. Rethinking the Ground Rules explores topics from the coronavirus to the cosmos to the craft of writing itself in varied works that offer journeys of re-examination and rule-breaking that will leave readers marveling at the restorative power of words. 7 writers/9 chapters/1 book. Rethinking the Ground Rules does more than make us rethink. This volume with its journey through poems, both formal and free form; prose memoir, essay and hybrid writing gives us a chance to reorder our priorities. And to meditate on those things important to us which we have for the moment (or the past months) misplaced or felt that we have lost. It may bear witness to a darkened world, but then opens doors through which the light of our lives shines through. As readers, we should think beyond the idea of anthology and experience a cohesive, interconnected work from the ideas, the hearts and the free rein creativity of these gifted writers. The reader will be rewarded by revisiting often. Laurence Carr, Author of Paradise Loft and Lightwoodpress.com
