Water Over Time: A Collection of Stories and Poems

When Barbara Toboni takes a trip back to Guam in 2010, she finds what remains of the family's first home abandoned and barely visible, ravaged by many years of storms. The house becomes a symbol for the author inspiring her to write poetry and short prose about her life on the island spanning twelve years. Memories are clear and portray Barbara's coming of age as she grows from pre-teen to young woman.
