This is a book of lost friendships and lost loves, the world an \"Ever rotating exhibit of light and dark,\" the regrets we have decades later over \"what can go wrong \/ without the right words.\" Throughout, the speaker-always a mother who fears the future-worries about English vocabulary and newly learned Italian phrases, as if learning language might teach us to mourn more easily this difficult present or help us to find, at last, a place we might call home. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Jehanne Dubrow, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eauthor of Civilians \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51378495226079,"sku":"9781957755649","price":19.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/2-5OjkTOrT9781957755649.webp?v=1789257900","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/perforated-paperback","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
