Remembering the Truth

"In Remembering the Truth, Janice Krasselt Tatter writes with searing honesty about painful memories, especially her memories of a marriage that ended in divorce, but her poems do more than record her history of pain, they reveal the process of her healing. As she says in one of these remarkable poems, "memory saves us / from ourselves." For Tatter, recovery of the past leads to recovery from the past. In this powerful debut collection, she takes us on this path of recovery and helps us remember our own truth." --David Jauss, author of Improvising Rivers
