About this item
by January Pearson (Author)
Nothing Left to Fix traces a father's battle with Valley Fever and its devastating complications. Through poems that move from diagnosis to death to grief, this collection explores the inadequacy of medical intervention, the devotion of a wife who cares for her husband through his seven-year illness, and the small mercies found in flecks of sea glass and birdsong in a field of snow. These poems meditate on fragility and resilience, discovering the redemptive beauty in bones that know how to mend and skin that grows over wounds. Using images from the natural world, Nothing Left to Fix follows the determined tenderness of caregiving and the hope--like "pinpricks of light" in the night sky--that love transcends the failure of the body.
