Hindsight (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780692162170)

Hindsight is a collection of essays flirting with the idea that the weight of distressing and confusing memories can be alleviated in the present, through writing. In precise, warm prose, young writer Erin Geary reveals lessons on loss, forgiveness, self-assurance, and hope, through vignettes of youth: friendship, teachers, first love, transformative pop songs, and more. With a title inspired by a Zora Neale Hurston quote: "There are years that ask questions and years that answer," Hindsight sensitively encourages readers to respond to their pasts.
