Synopsis

Light in Unopened Windows by Priscilla Turner Spada is a collection of poems, "with an ear tuned to both formal poetry and free verse," *  that opens windows to the past.  Poems about a family's history--a father killed in WW II, a widowed mother living into her 100th year--express the poet/daughter's response to these and other losses.  The poems "are at once elegies and celebrations, a tribute to feelings that endure and outlast the absences left behind".****
Priscilla is a poet/artist living in Newburyport, MA.
The publisher, Finishing Line Press, Georgetown, KY, can be reached at www.finishinglinepress.com.
