THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND, Poems by Margo Button, is the author contemplating the rage she feels about her son's fate, and gains some sense of equilibrium by adopting a South American child.
Here are new poems about coming to terms with the death of her son. As she lets the shadows fall behind, she turns her face to the suin and travels to Mexico where people toy with death on the Day of the Dead, eating candy skulls and hanging skeletons in their homes.
