Product Description
by Mary Haylock (Author)
Mary Haylock is a wry chronicler of the joy, pain and loss that comprise the sum of our lives. She writes humanely and intelligently of the quotidian moments that slowly accrete to form a life, fully lived. She combines frankness, a jigger of self-deprecation and great heart into a satisfying, maple leaf-flavored cocktail. Had Erma Bombeck channeled a teasing glimpse of Alice Munro with echoes of Nora Ephron, she would have been known as Mary Haylock. David Hardin, author of 'Dreaming Bob Wills' and 'A Ruinous Thirst'
Moments on a Staircase is a boisterous and wonderful read. It tugs at the heartstrings and warms the soul. This poignant memoir, laced with humor, joy, love, loss and pain weaves a lovely human tapestry throughout the pages As I read the book I found myself laughing out loud in sections and also shedding a tear in others. Haylock is a master of blending simplicity and eloquence into a potpourri of emotional strength and fragility to satisfy both the rebellious and the tender heart. Candice James, Poet Laureate Emerita, New Westminster, BC CANADA
