My Life in Moments: A Poetic Memoir


Overview

This sweet and intimate poetic memoir by Jessica Amos, invites you to question the nuance of memory and how it changes over time, just as we do. Who's to say why we remember the things we do, and forget others? What evidence is there that what we remember is how things actually happened? And even more confounding, how is it that the stories and memories told to us by those who came before us, somehow become our own? As the daughter of two born again ex-convicts, Jessica's writing examines how memories are rarely chronological - they come and go as they please, always slightly changed since their last visit. My Life in Moments: A Poetic Memoir serves to explore the gaps between events as much as the events themselves. Names, places, and timelines in the poems are mentioned loosely, or not at all, to mirror the snapshot effect of memories, and the power they have to shape our emotional experiences. ""Amos's visceral imagery takes you by the hand, showing you her earliest memories, treasures on a shelf, picking each one up to inspect and return, shifting effortlessly between light and dark, sharing secrets, trusting them in your care, and you leave feeling the weight of an invisible friendship bracelet she sneakily tied around your wrist."" About the Author: Jessica Amos is a writer and artist. This is her first book but not her last. She lives in Salem, Oregon, and online at www.staywithyourself.com. My Life In Moments was originally written in 2013, and left to gather digital dust in Jessica's writing archives... until now.
