Gift

The connections and inter connections of past and present--the realization that life is a whole continuously echoing back to the past and unfolding toward the future--were sources of the strength, renewal, and joy celebrated in Trilogy and, in a differing, but no less real way, in The Gift. In recapturing her memories of being a very little girl in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and later on a country place outside Philadelphia, H.D. 'let the story tell itself or the child tell it. It is this voice or child's eye-view that lends The Gift its special charm as H.D. recreates the ordinary and extraordinary occasions of her early youth, the nightmares and delights.H. D. is the author of 'Gift' with ISBN 9780811208536 and ISBN 0811208532.
