Produktbeschreibung
Cora McCann Liderbach's expansive chapbook Throughline allows poetry to "knit together the fractured fault lines" of our lives with intriguing imagery, playful rhythms, wit and earned wisdoms. Poems touch on growing up with warring parents; developing essential tremor (ET) at age 15; controlling it with deep brain stimulation surgery (DBS) nearly 60 years later; the effects of alcohol abuse on family life; the Covid-19 pandemic; and the life-changing discovery of compassion and gratitude. Whether focusing on the weather in Cleveland, Ohio, or the mythical Lake Erie Monster, her poetry is by turns realistic and dreamlike, including free verse, prose poems, sonnets, pantoums and abecedarians.
Autorenporträt
Cora McCann Liderbach lives on the shores of Lake Erie in Lakewood, Ohio, with her husband. Prior to writing poetry, she enjoyed a long career in hospital marketing as a writer and editor. Liderbach lived with a condition called essential tremor from the age of 15. By the time she reached her 70s, it had become debilitating, and she underwent life-changing deep brain stimulation surgery. The experience inspired some of the poems in this collection.
