At the Hour of Now

By Maria Lisella

Maria Lisella's newest collection, At the Hour of Now, tells the unflinchingly honest story of a blended family that raises urgent questions, quells hearts and provides a gateway to healing from loss, bolstered by a firm belief in hope. Rich with dialogue, part love letter, part narrative in three voices, At the Hour of Now untangles the threads of storytelling, mental illness, grief, and caregiving. The randomness of fate, and the choices made or not made, span the globe from the Bronx to Italy, Morocco, and Puerto Rico. Ultimately, this book carries us past sorrow toward the elusive wonder of being alive to celebrate and survive with which each reader can identify.
