Download or read book Familiar Faces / Private Grief written by Susan Ioannou. This book was released on 2011-07-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revised and expanded edition, the first half of the book, Familiar Faces, presents a variety of individuals: from an elegant single woman and a middle-aged school teacher, through students, writers, a convalescent, unhappy insurance adjuster, artistic duo, desperate gardener, and grandmothers, to old Greek men sharing coffee in the mall. These are the faces we encounter in everyday life, seen through the fresh eye of a poet. The second half of the book, Private Grief, has a more sombre tone, looking toward, then mourning, the demise of loved ones, and in the process coming to terms with and acknowledging the cycle of life.
