Her perspective alternates between living each moment fully and her knowledge that these moments are fleeting touchstones of her own mortality. Few writers can capture a grief response or the complicated process of forgiveness so vividly. Her poems are consistently startling and profound, \u003cbr\u003emagnifying themes of love and loss, despair and transformation.

DiMauro is an unapologetically introspective poet and her writing vibrates with her wisdom of the inner life as she narrates the self that exists in the context of history, culture and nature. I found myself underlining certain phrases and sentences, wanting to hold onto them like a gift from a guru.
