Pieces From the Long Afternoon

$6.00

Read this book aloud slowly and allow yourself the delicious pleasure of being transported back and forth in the dazzling blink of an eye–back to the 1940s in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, where the child Monica sits under her mother’s grand piano, looks out with wide brown eyes, and sees those truths we all knew in childhood, but may have forgotten–and forth to the present moment where the poet Monica Ochtrup remembers what she once knew and lets us in on it.” –Phebe Hanson
