"""Recalibrating Gravity is impactful, rare, and supple-a book that has stayed with me since I turned the last page."" -- Joan Kwon Glass, author of NIGHT SWIM ""Even when those who ought to have known better catastrophically did not, and engaged in extreme stupidity, the conclusion is that she is here, she real, she belongs."" -- Josie Byzek, Senior Director, Communications and Digital Experience, United Spinal Association ""Mary Keating's Recalibrating Gravity is a window into the author's world -- its triumphs and sadnesses. This book is full of odd things, keenly observed -- as in the poems 'Bungaroosh' and 'The Goat of Christmas Past' and so many others."" -- Charles Rafferty, Poet ""Recalibrating Gravity is a peek into the swirling wheels of joy and laughter, tragedy and triumph, love and blessings in the world of Mary, a poet, a lawyer and an adventurer par excellence."" -- Dr. Karen Shields, Integrative Wellness Clinician ""Mary's... memoir written in verse reaches deeper into the psyche than prose alone could aspire to achieve... the strength found in the... poems in Recalibrating Gravity leaves us with a deepened ability to approach our own adversity."" -- Katie Dozier, The Poetry Space ""These autobiographical free verse poems are achingly honest and subversively creative... Her tone more often than not is self-deprecating, but that doesn't hide her ability to cope with challenges and frustrations... I doubt I could handle. A highly recommend read."" -- Ed Ahern, International Author and Poet, Editor"
