For a Chance to Walk on Streets of Gold is a personal history that weaves deftly across time, place, and generations.

Without sentimentality, but with respect and tenderness, these poems speak of a family's vulnerabilities as well as joys. The reader experiences a deep sense of empathy for suffering and an equal ability to celebrate success.
