The poems intertwine to explore grief from the loss of loved ones (a lover, a daughter and close friends), early memories of growing up in an immigrant foster home, later memories of working in a mental hospital, the poet's own recovery from addiction, the emotional and spiritual impact of a near death and life-changing accident with its lasting, crippling effects, and an acceptance of a life nearing its own chronological end. Although there is a darkness in these poems, they belie the empathy and subtle humor in the poems and the joy of finding love in later life after so much loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Mayo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1961451158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961451155\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bainbridge Island Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.32d","brand":"Tim Mayo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440780947711,"sku":"9781961451155","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_14e07af0-8e2e-4a67-9285-865f94742ad8.jpg?v=1777184767","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/muscle-memories-of-love-and-tim-mayo-9781961451155","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
