In How We Bury Our Dead, Faith Garbin's lush poems are an uncompromising encounter with how "the silver scissors of madness and fate cut up all of our dreams." In embracing existence that is fragile as a shell, Garbin continues to display strength needed for a person to continue going through daily tasks in spite of painful family encounters and loss that threaten to overcome and strangle like morning glory that is not uprooted. Ultimately Garbin comes to terms with the knowledge that each person is left alone with their need, their desire at the moment of death. These are not poems that can be sailed out into the night, into the blackness. They will return to boomerang the heart." – Vivian Shipley, award-wining poet and editor of the Connecticut Review
