Sheryl Abbey Knihy

Along the Edge of Absence is Sheryl Abbey's poetic journey through time and place: from childhood to motherhood; from America to Israel, Germany, and the Netherlands; from her parents' buried Holocaust traumas to her search to uncover them. With language that stirs and soothes, Abbey reckons with history, marvels at nature, and weaves her way through love and loss, ultimately discovering "breaths of grace" that heal across the generations.
