- Summary:
- In Gloria Vando's tender ode to making bread, she writes. "I ... remember you always/in the act of kneading ... To give bread/is an offering of love ..." With Shadows & Supposes, her second book, Vando conjures words and vivid images of war, love, family loyalty and friendship -- the things that bind us together -- as lovingly as preparing a loaf of bread for her family. Her memories of pain and joy, victory and defeat, are kneaded into offerings that nourish us. Vando's Shadows & Supposes is a tour de force by a mature voice -- a voice of conscience and emotional directness that reaches out to all of us.
