She writes odes to her favorite uncle--who was \"green\" before it was a hashtag--and Mother Nature via a retro margarine commercial. She writes letters to her failing memory as well as to America's amnesia. With fear of the water below and a burglar who enters through her second story window, she bravely faces the story under the story, the second story we often neglect to tell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDenise Duhamel\u003c\/b\u003e is a distinguished university professor in the MFA program at Florida International University in Miami.
