Bücher von Shuly Xochitl Cawood

Something So Good It Can Never Be Enough is a testament to Shuly Xóchitl Cawood's belief that it's the moments that matter-the ones you want to relive, the ones you want to take back, the ones you can never forget. Her poems often hone in on a particular story where life took a turn, or a truth was revealed. They mine regret and longing, travel through joy and sorrow, and hold on to a vision of the future while trying to let go of the past.

If you've ever wanted to go back in time and talk to your younger self-to give advice, to say what you wish you had known then that you know now, to promise that even when it gets bad, it will get better-then this book is for you. If you are still young enough that most of life's lessons stretch ahead in front of you, then save yourself a heap of trouble and read what's on these pages."This book is a must-have for readers who wish to garner the wisdom of a gifted writer who has lived it and learned a lot about life's journey along the way." -Dayton Daily News"Shuly Xóchitl Cawood opens her new book light-heartedly: with good advice on bangs. It's not all fun and games though: she also counsels her younger self on more serious topics- love and faith and health and remembering that patience is sometimes required." -Courtney LeBlanc, author of The Violence Within "Here are three more things to tell yourself at any age: 1. This book belongs in the hands of everyone turning 17-or even 57! You won't find a better birthday gift. 2. Even if you don't read it until you're 57, it will still bring you tears, solace, and wisdom. 3. Here is a writer to follow closely: the beauty, delight and humor that emanates from her work will stay with you for a very long time." -Carla Sameth, author of One Day on the Gold Line: A Memoir
