Mercy

by Shirley Camia

Expanding breathlessly in the magnitude of loss, Mercy confronts despair to emerge anew with a bright offering of elegy. Beginning at her mother’s hospital bed, Camia invites readers to keep vigil while she journeys through seasons of bereavement. Ethereal and elegant, Camia’s reflections are grounded in grief as they do the aching work of mourning and moving forward.
