In Remembrance of the Life

By Jane Rosenberg LaForge

Book Overview

A chapbook by Jane Rosenberg LaForge. 25 elegiac and unflinching poems that harvest a transformative beauty from the fields of memory and loss. "Rosenberg LaForge points toward the beauty of inevitability; death is less an end than a step toward 'the infinite, and you can/ no longer resist the distance.' Reading these poems is often akin to "diving into a rainbow of saffron and petrol," where the choices one makes may not be choices at all." -Leslie McGrath, poet and author of Out from the Pleiades: a Novella (Jaded Ibis Press, 2014) "Reading In Remembrance of the Life is like reading Virginia Woolf if she were writing poetry-one image triggers another appearing to emerge from the unconscious...a book that the reader will return to again and again." -Chella Courington, author of The Somewhat Sad Tale of the Pitcher and the Crow and Love Letter to Biology 250.
