Hardback. Condition: New. In this meditative, heartbreaking, and unexpectedly comforting book, artist and essayist Judith Margolis tells the story of her mother's illness, decline, and death through thoughtfully written vignettes, poignant drawings, and poetic, prayerful affirmations.As her mother fights a series of health crises and faces the end of her life, Margolis documents her anxious concern and her father's turmoil while juggling responsibilities and her own distress. The resulting narrative, told with quiet intensity and candor, bears witness to contentious deliberations over medical decisions, the difficulties of patient care, and the complicated dynamics of family. In this book, designed to imitate a traditional Jewish prayer book, Margolis reminds herself and others caring for a dying parent to "pray"-pray for clarity, pray to stay centered, pray to forgive oneself-as a way of acknowledging and embodying the turbulent emotions involved. Both the form of the book and Margolis's rendering of the traditions involved in a family death ground Life Support firmly in the Jewish experience, providing a spiritual layer to this honest, realistic narrative that all readers will find inspiring and relevant.Life Support: Invitation to Prayer is a unique testimony to the power of creative response to infirmity and careful documentation during times of personal loss, as well as a loving tribute to family, spirituality, and grief.

Paperback. Condition: New. A poet and a book artist take a train across the United States, creating and conversing along the way. Late in the fall of 2017, poet C. S. Giscombe and book artist Judith Margolis boarded an Amtrak train in New York City and, four days later, stepped off another train at the edge of San Francisco Bay. Giscombe was returning home to California to address an all-white audience on the problem of white supremacy, and expatriate Margolis, accustomed to a somewhat solitary existence, was visiting the United States and making collages. Traveling together, they each turned their train quarters into writing and drawing "studios" where they engaged in conversations and arguments and shared experiences of the discomforts and failures of recent times. Their original intention had been to travel west and document, in journals and sketchpads, the complex, charged American landscape, but as the trip progressed-and in the months afterwards-the project took on a new shape. Train Music, the book that resulted, recollects and explores the century's racial and gendered conflicts-sometimes sensually, sometimes in stark images, sometimes in a "mixed economy" of poetry and prose.
