Sarah Kendall Let Me Show You Chocolate Lilies Kendall's vivid and lyrical memories “blaze into aliveness” as they flow between prose and poetry. Her poems suggest one can come to terms with tragedy through creativity and beauty. Sarah Kendall evokes a blissful childhood amid the lush English countryside, an idyll later ruptured by her mother's paralysis, her parents’ breakup, and her own adolescent dreams. Catastrophe strikes in midlife when an aneurism leaves her physically and cognitively compromised.
