{"product_id":"75-years-michelle-koubek-9781639808427","title":"75 Years: A Woman's Life in Verse","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn her debut poetry collection, Michelle Koubek pens a chronological narrative of a woman's life. She gathers up dreams attained and lost, friendships forged only to drift apart, tragedies, disappointments, and small victories that ultimately are not small at all. Writing in age-appropriate voices, this poetic telling spans 75 years, from birth and first steps to teen angst and bewilderment through to a reflective adulthood that is, if not quite as wise as wished, not regretful in the least. Despite all the uncertainty and chaos that living has to offer, Ms. Koubek paints a life that is beautiful in its fullness, and she is certain of one thing; there is a thread of hope that runs from beginning to end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eCatherine Arra\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eSolitude, Tarot \u0026amp; the Corona Blues\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003e(Women in Parentheses)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this poignant and delightful collection, Michelle Koubek illuminates the evolution of a woman from birth to age 75 as she navigates challenges, losses, and joys - one poem at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrenda Wildrick\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eOn the Train for Somewhere Else\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lovely read filled with depth, humor, and comforting relatability.
