CP DIDN'T STOP SUZANNE FROM LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST: A Posthumous Poetry collection and Memoir
This Store is Closed on Sunday: Poetry of Suzanne Howe (Beck), Lovingly Compiled posthumously by Robert Beck
Explore the hurts of a young woman with cerebral palsy as she searches for love and affirmation.
Share the pain of soul-searching as her friends enjoy normal relationships and raising families.
Suzanne Howe (Beck) triumphed over her physical disability and
emotional struggles with humor, friendliness, and genuine concern for
others. In her poetry, she found healing and peace, and her spirit lives
on in all who read it. Lovingly preserved, compiled, and published posthumously by husband, Robert Beck.
This Store is Closed on Sunday is filled with poems that range from love, travel, humor, and the day-to-day struggles of any young woman, not only someone with cerebral palsy. At the end, you find a section of personal photos and mementos, including query letters the author sent to magazines of the day. A touching and enjoyable read for lovers of poetry and prose.
HOW WE HELPED: Robert found his wife's poems, some handwritten and some typed, and needed TAM The Author's Mentor to help him bring her work to the world. TAM digitized the materials (typed them up), formatted a lovely poetry/memoir, and Robert was able to honor his wife for her amazing life and touching poetry.
