What the stones remember

"In this memoir, poet Patrick Lane describes his raw and tender emergence at age sixty from a lifetime of alcohol and drug addiction. He spent the first year of his sobriety close to home, tending his garden. Here he cast his mind back over his life, unnerved by the memories he had tried to drown in vodka. A new bloom on a plant; a skirmish among the birds; and the slow, measured change of seasons invariably brought to mind an episode from his eventful past. What the Stones Remember is the emerging chronicle of Lane's attempt to face those memories, as well as his new self - to rediscover his life. In this book, Lane offers readers an unflinching and unsentimental account of coming to one's senses in the presence of nature."--BOOK JACKET.
