Heather Trexler Remoff

Opis

At age fifty-four, Heather Trexler Remoff was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. February Light, beautifully crafted, evocative yet spare, joyous and truthful, is Heather's very personal memoir of her fight with the disease - and her triumph. February Light is part medical diary, for Heather describes openly the stages of her disease and her struggle to confront them; part nature journal, for the book is written month by month and examines parallels between what is happening in Heather's body and the outdoors; and part chronicle of the richness of small-town life recollected in glimpses of Heather's childhood as well as life in Osprey Lakes.
