When Death Is A Red Balloon

Linda Lerner's, When Death Is A Red Balloon, deftly explores one of the most intense feelings in life: deep grieving. Her loss of the closest of friends, her rock in life, is devastating beyond words. Yet she manages to find a voice to her mourning and gifts us these poems which are both deeply personal and universally recognizable. Anyone who has experienced the loss of someone they loved needs to read this book. -- Alan Catlin, poet & editor of Misfit Mag.
