"Jennifer L. Freed’s When Light Shifts is a moving memoir focussing on the months immediately after her mother survived a severe stroke. This 61-poem collection (including eleven poems from The Samuel Allen Washington Prize-winning sequence, “Cerebral Hemorrhage”) depicts, in haunting detail, the disorienting and treacherous up-is-down, left-is-right, floor-rising-and-falling-ship-deck world her mother—and other family members as well—must learn to navigate in hospital, in rehab and finally at home. It is an honest, brave book."--back cover
