| Summary: | "While the story will forever be fiercely hers, Getting Dressed in the Dark opens a mirror or portal between D'Italia and her reader,inviting in all those attempting vulnerable journeys of discovery and creative birthings of their own. In each faceted chapter, D'Italia varyingly weaves or unweaves tendrils of her life's attempts at unbound meaning making. She writes from a commitment to bearing witness to our memorial identities housed in the keepsakes, wall coverings, table scratches, sent and unsent letters, kitchen utensils, fuzzy sweaters, worn paths and meals of our lives. Her narrative is sometimes devastating, but always important: a series of blazes along a path of truth and beauty. Even for those who tend not to notice resonances of their embedment in their surrounding worlds, this memoir will spark moments of recognition of our role in weaving narratives into and through our environments. For those already sensitive to theseinterweavings, the book will feel like a fortuitous lightning strike, providentially awakening new commitments within one's own journeyof creativity and living well within life's complexities."-- |
