Braiding Lives, ©2014

Sharon's collection of Jewish themed poems, Braiding Lives, was a finalist in the 2013 Poetica Magazine annual chapbook contest.

"Braiding Lives celebrates the moments that make life luminous. Sharon Lask Munson’s language renders the transformations of life into art, the moments that make life beautiful. Sharon’s poems have a generous helping of her family history, food that will make you hungry, and early years filled with great tenderness. Sharon’s own words describe her poetry best: “Order up Laughter. / Let the stories be tender, the poetry loving.” Her poems anoint you with vision and grace."
— Diane Frank, Author of Swan Light
and Yoga of the Impossible

"Like her Detroit neighbor, Philip Levine, Sharon Lask Munson speaks from the heart of the American Jewish experience. The poems take us on a journey from “a small Georgia town / “He heard a voice calling, Landsman?” to Jerusalem, Germany, Russia, Brooklyn. Throughout these pages are woven the strands of lineage, of family, of community, of “The Whole Mishpocha.” Munson perfectly expresses the delicate yet powerful double-hold that continuity and change exert in Braiding Lives."
— Toni Hanner, Author of Gertrude
and The Raveling Braid
