The Nail Set, by Margo Jodyne Dills

Poetry, chapbook, 36 pages, from Bottlecap Features. The Nail Set is a collection of heartfelt poems about previous chapters of my life, when rooms were bigger, life was longer, written over a period of time pertaining to events that are connected, speaking of joy, sorrow and sometimes terror. We had a joyous home, what the kids called the Koolaid House, for all who gathered there, all ages. There was also pain and loss, culminating to a time when my husband was stricken with meningitis and sepsis, hospitalized for several months, and came home altered and damaged.
