Diane Ackerman, author of The Zookeeper's Wife and An Alchemy of Mind, talks about hew latest memoir, One Hundred Names for Love. It's a testament to the power of creativity in language, life - and love. When Diane's husband of 35 years suffered a massive stroke, he lost his command of language. For Paul West, a writer, poet, and professor, that was a devastating blow. Over the next six years, Diane refused to give up hope. In my conversation with Diane, she shares the touching story of their marriage and explores the role of becoming a caregiver.
I'll also be giving voice to a few passages from one of my favorite books, Gift From the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. She writes about love and relationship and I find that she was way ahead of her time. This book was first published in 1955.
On this week's program we're bringing love to life....for ourselves, one another and the Earth!
