The memoir "Glimpses . . . Now I Can See" offers stories, poems, and essays that allow you (the reader) to see how the author's loss of and regaining vision gave her insight about events, people, and herself. In the book's selections, you read not only of frustrations and fears, but also of joy, of contentment, and of peace. As she looks into her own life, you sense hope—a resilience, achievement, and love that you may also gain renewed vision of your life.
