Details: Product Description
A new anthology of prose and poetry from the prestigious Hudson Valley Women’s Writing Group – seven older women from diverse backgrounds (academics, social workers, teachers and lawyers) who write from the collective perspective of being women-of-a-certain-age in a culture that tends to render older women invisible or irrelevant, and who share their unique perspectives on memory, joy, resistance, resilience, aging, and transformation.
Rethinking the Ground Rules explores topics from the coronavirus to the cosmos to the craft of writing itself in varied works that offer journeys of re-examination and rule-breaking that will leave readers marveling at the restorative power of words.
Review
“Seven women friends meet for decades and exchange their writing. They encourage each other to revise, support each other’s work, show up for each other’s readings, and buy each other’s books. Rethinking the Ground Rules is the second book they wrote together, coming after An Apple in Her Hand. Raucous and mesmerizing, the texts included in this collection are spellbinding, electrifying, honest, uplifting, life-affirming, and pure delight.”
– Lucia Cherciu, Author of Train Ride to Bucharest, Poet Laureate of Dutchess County
