Synopsis

In Daffodils in December: Poems from an Unexpected Life, Alice Bingham Gorman's beautifully crafted poems take readers from the poet's early childhood to her eighties.

In the words of poet Richard Blanco, "A book for anyone who has ever asked the proverbial question of life's meaning."

Spanning a lifetime, Alice Bingham Gorman's Daffodils in December traverses both loss and joy, clearly rendering both the harsher outer world of fact and the inner world of our secret hearts. This is a collection of poems both tender and tough, always enjoying the light, not fearful of the dark.

Praise for Daffodils in December:

Alice Gorman's commitment to the imagination, the spirit, and love guides her through doubts, guilt, and grief, leaving open, through it all, "the gift of possibility."

- Jeffrey Harrison, author of Between Lakes

Lively and smart, with unexpected metaphors and a beautifully relaxed voice, surprise images abound in Alice Gorman's wonderful collection.

- Molly Peacock, author of The Widow's Crayon Box

Heartful and genuine, these poems collectively and consciously render the earned wisdom and joys of a life well-worth living with all its emotional complexities.

- Richard Blanco, author of Homeland of My Body
