About this title

Synopsis

Poetry by Robert Mark Schaeberle, Memoir by Jeanne Schaeberle What does a son do when he hears voices? Withdraw? Or use his sword, poetry to defend himself? How does a mother handle family life and death and work through horrible grief? Mom...Let's Talk offers insight to the power of healing through writing and the sense of chaos revealed in the poetry.

From the Publisher

Editor's Note: It was my privilege to get to know Robert Schaeberle through his poetry and through his mom's cathartic memoir. Each writer's work represents a heroic quest for peace and sanctuary, made by individuals who will remind you of someone you know. "Mom" is every mom who is or has been the foundation from which family thrives. Jeanne's ruminations on a religious upbringing, and the challenges she faced as a teenager and later a parent, juxtaposed against Robert's poems, bring his poetry into focus. The poems reveal a boy's life initially filled with wonder and gentleness, which was invaded by the awful mental dragons of terror and desperation. These poems are Robert's sword of battle, forged in the fire of hope. His hope was born from the strong bonds of love between mother, son, and family, along with a deep faith in the power of God and His angels. It is ironic that Robert's heart failed him at 25, because his heart also drove him to be the best he knew how to be, in spite of his mental turmoil. "Mom...Let's Talk" is for young people who are slaying their own dragons and wondering if they can triumph. This book is also for parents, guardians, teachers, and others who care about or work with artistic kids, especially poets and writers who struggle with remaining whole in a fractured world.
