Product Description:
A poet and essayist describes her joys and sorrows during twenty years of living with HIV in this funny and sometimes poignant memoir. Melnick describes in quick, bold strokes the minutia of arranging furniture, buying swimsuits, eating, dating, not dating, and getting married while living under the shadow of potentially life-threatening illness. Running throughout the story is her life-long love of music, country, blues, pop, and zydeco, a constant friend and companion that soothes, consoles, and celebrates with her the ultimate joy of living.

In the first few pages, I cried. The following pages made me a better person--stronger and more determined than ever.
Patrice Melnick is an incredible writer.
