Description

"A daybook, a memoir, and a serial poem, 'Ironstone Whirlygig' is also something else. The book began as a blog (ironstonewhirlygig.blogspot.com) written in stolen moments--in the hours between the local closing and the sun coming up, when children and husband are asleep and the world is quiet and still enough to allow the mind to remake the world with words. Over days and years, a world unfolds in this book, palpably present and haunted by absence, a wounded world marked by time and its slow, sure passing, a world to love. Amanda Cook has written a book to savor, to read and reread, a book to live with"--front cover flap.
