This collection of how-to poems offers words to help us find our way in life, to navigate through difficult times, to cope with grief, and to celebrate the beauty and strangeness of the world around us. In How to Say, Stephanie Marcellus gives us a poetic instruction manual for everything from picking mulberries, saying I love you, to living with ghosts. These poems apply the language of direction-with its imperatives and step-by-step guidelines-to life's experiences and emotions and offer insight in a unique poetic manner. Themes include the transformative power of nature, the importance of memories, and how writing helps us preserve cherished experiences, as well as heal our wounds.
