Synopsis "Places in the Bone: A Memoir (in English)"
In this recently revised edition of a book bestselling New York Times and Pulitzer prize-winning author Norman Mailer said was written in "a poet's prose, often beautiful . . ." he went on the book, "reads like a skier on a slalom course full of . . . fine surprises and sudden disasters . . ." In a series of unflinching vignettes laced with heartbreak and humor, Places in the Bone gives an unforgettable account of loss and survival, childhood secrets banished from memory, and the power of language to retrieve the missing parts of oneself and one's past."...a startlingly honest exploration...(Dine) comes to a crucial understanding of how writing gives her ownership over her life." -- ForeWord Magazine"In this powerful memoir, poet Dine reflects...on how disease is just one aspect of a life worth living." -- Library Journal"Each piece or collage represents a thread of memories that veil and unveil other memories of loss, abuse, and fragmentation. Places in the Bone is an extraordinary work of literature written with grace, eloquence, and dignity - an important testimony of endurance as well as hope." -- Marjorie Agosín, author of Poems for Josefina and recipient of the United Nations Leadership Award for Human Rights. "I can't remember the last time I was so captured by a book's spell. Carol Dine brilliantly blends past and present events and emotions so that time becomes a collective experience, not a mere chronology. Although this beautiful memoir is full of sorrow, it is ultimately about the redemptive power of art and language." -- Stephen McCauley, author of The Object of My Affection and True Enough
