So can losing your daughter to a drunk driver two days after her eighth birthday-or looking up at the majesty of the Big Buddha in Phuket after getting lost in the mountains on the way there. Spanning a period from high school in the seventies until a few hours before it went to the editor, the poems in Provisional Conclusions explore these topics and more: being a parent, being a man, living with ADHD, the legacy of Howard Thurman, the myth of objectivity, the delight and terror of raising a family, the dreams of Korczak Ziolkowski, and even a quick peek into hell. Poet Mike Fedel also considers race, sex, love lost and found, philosophy, consciousness, and God-what is she like, anyway? Sections include \"Thinking Out Loud,\" \"The ADHD Chapter,\" \"Loss,\" and \"Love and Nervous Energy.\" Offering accessible observations on a wide range of topics, the verses in this collection consider the raw emotions associated with love, grief, and ADHD. \"...powerful and poignant poems which capture a father's experience of losing his 8 year-old daughter...\" -Irving Leon, Ph.D. \"...the poetry of a brilliant, often misunderstood ADHD mind, trapped in a linear world...\" -Suzanne Ostrowski-Dansel, M.Ed., ACC \"...fresh, moving poems by Mike Fedel, an important new voice in music and now in poetry...\" -Anna Boothe, Author of \"I Already Love You,\" \"Beyond Words,\" and \"Buddha.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mike Fedel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781491779941\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"iUniverse","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45379211427955,"sku":"9781491779941","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_b85059d9-4763-465b-824b-926edcdd0541.jpg?v=1787238961","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/provisional-conclusions-poems-about-adhd-grief-and-some-of-lifes-other-little-struggles-9781491779941","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
