Part memoir, part homage to the healing power of nature, this exquisitely written book evokes the poignancy of time lost and the ever-present possibility of renewal.
In this powerful and beautifully written book, Lane offers readers an unflinching and unsentimental account of coming to one\'s senses in the presence of nature..
What the Stones Remember is the emerging chronicle of Lane\'s attempt to face those memories, as well as his new self--to rediscover his life.
A new bloom on a plant, a skirmish among the birds, the way a tree bends in the wind, and the slow, measured change of seasons invariably bring to his mind an episode from his eventful past.
Lane has gardened for as long as he can remember, and his garden\'s Life has become inseparable from his own.
He spent the first year of his sobriety close to home, tending his garden, where he cast his mind back over his life, searching for the memories he\'d tried to drown in vodka.
In this exquisitely written memoir, poet Patrick Lane describes his raw and tender emergence at age sixty from a lifetime of alcohol and drug addiction.
