In Other Lives Our Own, Jason Weiss's nimble prose links rich viewpoints with precise lyricism and meditative calm. In poignant narrative sketches, language, place, time, and experience combine into words with the power to bind existence to memory and thought. Snapshots of joy, loss, change, travel, pain, distance, foreignness, spirituality, and laughter interconnect in his artful reflections; in these moments, you can glimpse parts of your own story.
