"I’ve long been a fan of Elizabeth A. Havey. I’ve followed and welcomed her writings on Boomer Highway.org, an exceptional blog of perceptive and stylish essays. Now with the publication of A Mother’s Time Capsule, Havey gives us an important collection of powerful and beautifully crafted short stories, and begins to take her place as an important American writer. The stories capture her unique, almost mystical connection with the complex realities of the American family, as she explores a tremendous range of emotions and actions that permeate family life. Read these polished and beautifully crafted stories and accept Elizabeth A. Havey’s gift of experience and insight. Embrace and be embraced by the power of her work as it opens up your own emotions and memories, leading you back to your own family story." —James Wagenvoord, author Mothers. We all have one and we all have memories of our mothers. The word elicits strong feelings, mostly positive. But mothers are diverse and so is their mothering and the circumstances in which they've raised, loved, cared for or failed a child. Each story in Elizabeth A. Havey's collection, A MOTHER'S TIME CAPSULE, presents a different journey, a varied view of this life-changing responsibility. Here you'll meet aging mothers, fearful mothers, single and divorced moms, a mother deprived of her child, another dealing with the attempted suicide of a daughter. Motherhood is love and caring, complete joy and devastating sorrow. It can fill the heart with sweet moments, or trouble the mind with conflict and thorny choice. And though some women may never have children of their own, as our mothers age the role often reverses, and like it or not we will know many of the challenges of motherhood then.

Having lost my mother at a young age, I wondered how I would relate to the short stories. I found that each store touched me in a different way – through a character, though an emotion expressed or through a situation or issue described. The stories were so well written and characters and emotions so well described. Some stories made me laugh and some made me cry. They all made me think about my own experiences as a mother and as a daughter.

While I enjoyed all of the stories, the last one about caring for a dying mother left me in tears -- not just because it unearthed feelings and experiences I had with my own mother -- but because I felt the author surely had to have been through those same experiences. It know it will resonate with many readers who have walked down the caregiving road.

Unforgettable, Memories of Mothers, a Love Connection By Carol Boyer Finding this author, reading her stories pulled me in immediately, my heart sweeping with so many emotions, relating on many levels to my own events in life. So many different ways we think of mothers, remember them, live to become one or not, but always bringing heart memories. Beth writes with literary beauty, at times her descriptions seem magical, tapping into all the senses of smell, sight and just feelings of longing, deja vu. I found myself laughing with joy, smiling silently at a memory from my own childhood, like seeing cookie crumbles on a tablecloth, hearing the whistle of the teapot, feeling the warmth of the steam, then turning to remember times I always loved watching the birds, scurrying to get to the seeds, as I still do. She brings the past to the present, unforgettable stories about childhood years, teenage angst, attempted suicide, marital strife, a woman's journey as her life changes, and one of the heartbreaking caretaking of a mother with dementia. Braced with strength, real truth, and always hope these stories stay in my mind, I related to so many emotions, especially the lonely caretaking for a loved one, the emptiness, the grief it brings but yet the lasting love and the knowledge of poignant, shared memories long past. I loved this book, and recommend it highly! And I hope to read more from this wonderful author soon.
