The Uses of Sorrow
(in my sleep i dreamed this poem )
Someone I loved once gave me
A box full of darkness
It took me years to understand,
That this, too, was a gift.
—Mary Oliver
Oliver's poem is an apt description of the 2019 dark and brooding memoir by Adrienne Brodeur, Wild Game; My Mother, Her Lover, and Me, reviewed by Book Mole, Larry Bowlden.
