I Remember: A Poetic Memoir

I Remember, a poetic memoir is Mary Helm's expansive collection of 58 poems, some written after she was diagnosed in 2017 with ALS and lost her speaking voice, others before then when she could still speak. Mary organized these poems as a memoir, choosing to tell stories of her childhood, of her travel experiences, and of compelling aspects of her adult life. As with lost and found, her 2018 collection of poems, this book reveals Mary's humility and her insightful authority about despair and empowerment, resilience and joy, love and fear, humor and faith, and courage. These poems continue to develop her self portrait, attending to what it means to be human.
