My Sister’s Diary is a hearttouching story of a very strong, passionate woman who endured the hardships of cerebral palsy for seventy-nine years. After Carolyn’s death, Carolyn’s sister, Nancy, read and gleaned amazing facts and feelings from Carolyn’s diaries of sixty-five years. Life started with a premature birth. School days were difficult, but Carolyn persisted in a school for the handicapped. After graduation from high school, Carolyn worked at the Sheltered Workshop in Binghamton. A later decline in her condition triggered her family to pursue a patterning program through the Institute for Human Potential. Carolyn’s improvement was remarkable. After her father’s death, Carolyn and her mother moved to Arizona to be close to family. Life was good for them until declining health took the life of her mother. After this, life for Carolyn was most difficult in Medicaid-assisted living facilities. She endured care that bordered on verbal and physical abuse. Three male aids cared deeply for Carolyn and gave her a reason to live. Carolyn felt like many abuse victims do—that she was guilty of causing the poor care. A move resulted in somewhat better care until her death in 2008.

Work Freely

We are so routinely betrayed by America's promises that we may forget our disillusion, our striving, and our still living hopes. This quiet, powerful collection helps us remember-both the history that is industrial and political and the particular history that accrues to a lifetime. The poems are testimonies to feelings that manage-and it is a hallmark of the poet's art-to be both stark and subtle, as they delve into grief that is manufactured daily by seemingly countless lies and into the truths that sustain a person and her poetry. There is a Whitman quality here-touch this book, and you touch the quiver of what deeply occurred. Baron Wormser, Poet Laureate of Maine and Author of Songs from a Voice The poems of Going Home are written with a journalist's eye, an educator's heart, an activist's gut, a poet's ear, and patience. "Work is taking something from it," Richardson ends the opening poem, and this taking is the poet's gift. In this collection, she asks," What do you give your time to?" We see her give it to the work that needs to be done-the futile campaign, the thankless task-whether it's getting out the vote in her hometown of Youngstown, Ohio, where "Votes float into errant flying digits;" "Recovering the bricks of disaster in redactions," while sorting through records of the Kent State shooting trials; working with and on behalf of children with autism, naming what needs to be named; or remembering tragic episodes that endow a life with history's longer life. Against the abuse of power-whether in the courtroom, the classroom, or the church-Richardson deploys the dramatic power of ordering, of the unanswerable question, of the found poem: "isn't death an everyday thing for everyone?"
