Mother Land

Mother Land is a story told in poetry -- the story of a mother with undiagnosed bipolar disorder, of a grandmother who tried to hold things together, and of a stepmother who took in the young girl and tended her wounded spirit. Interwoven with this story are poems about gardening, one of Marion s great passions. Through gardening, she joins the inner and outer landscapes of her life to bring about healing, forgiveness, and reconciliation
