Glimpses in Time
I am so honored to have received the following review from a professional book reviewer.
Glimpses in Time: A Collection of Memoirs and More
Barbara Godin (2021) www.barbgodin.com
Personal essays and memoirs are perhaps among the most popular genre of writing for writers—and they can be very difficult to write, especially to make the story or stories universally appealing. Barbara Godin has succeeded very well in this respect.
I definitely connected with a few of these stories and poems. I have been on some absurd camping trips and can easily relate to some of the situations Godin describes in “The Absurdity of Camping.” I also related to loving a sister even when you know you can’t really help them deal with difficult situations. “Grief: Mary’s Story” is an award-winning short story that shows the depth of Godin’s personal writing.
In Part 1, Godin has gathered 25 of her stories not only to share glimpses in her own time but to help the reader connect with theirs. Many of the stories Godin shares are not happy ones, or at least they come from a sad place, but the overall theme that connects these stories is that we are more resilient than we think we might be, and with love and support, we can grow stronger. Godin then moves to some fictional stories in Part 2, which are as reality-based as the previous stories. She also includes some of her poetry that, as written on the book jacket, “includes feelings and situations that help us to connect to one another.” In Part 3, Godin shares the first part of her upcoming autobiography, “Can I Come Home Now?”—something else that must not have been easy to write and yet may provide some catharsis for both writer and reader as others may relate to the story.
Personal essays, short stories and memoirs are among the favourite things I like to read and “Glimpses in Time” does not disappoint. It will evoke laughter, tears, anger, sympathy, and empathy. Most of all it will reaffirm your faith in the human spirit, endures, especially when we let others love us, and most importantly, we love ourselves.
