Overview

In On This Earth, DiMauro demonstrates she is equally gifted at chronicling the painful and provocative as she is at expressing her love for the sensual beauty of the natural world. Her perspective alternates between living each moment fully and her knowledge that these moments are fleeting touchstones of her own mortality. Few writers can capture a grief response or the complicated process of forgiveness so vividly. Her poems are consistently startling and profound, magnifying themes of love and loss, despair and transformation. Everyone should read this book. -David Lally, screenwriter, Dream House The poems in On This Earth are weighty yet inspirational, lending the reader to look with courage into their own lives. DiMauro is an unapologetically introspective poet and her writing vibrates with her wisdom of the inner life as she narrates the self that exists in the context of history, culture and nature. I found myself underlining certain phrases and sentences, wanting to hold onto them like a gift from a guru. This is a seminal book. -Vivianna DePraeo
