There are moments in life that a poignant and memorable. Such brief
glimpses of understanding are what make life worth living. In One Sweet
Moment, Bruce Meyer recalls his childhood, honors poets who have made
those instances of insight meaning, recalls the artists who have
attempted to capture them in their work, and recalls the grief and joy
of living. Life, Meyer tells us, is the sum of many moments from the
bittersweet to the joyful, and in poems that are memorable moments in
their own right, continues to explore the experience of being alive.
