A signed, limited edition, hand bound book of poems and essays about the aftermath
of 9/11
|
As much as the death
of humans supercedes any other destruction, we all must deal with loss
no matter what its form.
As a writer, immediately after that black
Tuesday, I started to set my grief to words. As the poems and essays piled
up, I decided that others could benefit from reading about my pain and
thus created a website
containing my writings, photographs, and photomontages.
However, as time passed,
I felt my website was too ephemeral.
This book grew out of a desire to give
a concrete form to that website. It is
not a duplicate but highlights the best writings from what I have come
to call “the 9/11 year.”
My hope is that by
sharing my memories and my grief, the Twin Towers can live on in our hearts
and our grief can, at some point, be quelled. |
