Each Day To Me A Joy: Jewish-Themed and Other Poems and Plays

Each Day to Me a Joy is a collection of poetry and plays about one woman’s commentary on spirituality, everyday life, and societal issues. The book is first divided into poems with a Jewish theme that offer a modern take on Judaism and other poems that encompass an assortment of human emotions. Because this is a lifetime collection of work, the reader is gifted with poems on various topics, ranging from the playful “Computer Migraine” and “Talking With The Hands” to the more serious observations of life’s hardships in “The Cancer Ward” and “The Awakening.” Amy began using her theatre education to write plays in 1985 in order to “express ideas more directly.” So the second part of Each Day to Me a Joy is Amy’s collection of two full-length and nine short plays. “Chickamy Blues” is a full-length play that comments on poverty and racism in America, and “The Thing He Loves” interprets the problems the gay community faced during the AIDS epidemic. Each Day to Me a Joy presents a unique perspective on a journey through life and all it has to offer. It’s a promising addition to your literary collection. Read more
