Blending themes of grief, reinvention, joy, and connection, Herman reflects on dance as both healing practice and artistic expression. Through moments like creating a socially distanced dance film during the pandemic and mourning the loss of a close friend, she explores the emotional and physical ways we carry love and loss. This memoir is a heartfelt tribute to family, friendship, art, and the unexpected beauty of late-in-life transformation.]]></description><link>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4215116</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4215116</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Herman, Michelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4215116105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780913123508/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1509173286</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Close-up]]></title><description><![CDATA[In this artful, expansive novel, we follow five protagonists -- Jacob, Martin, Caroline, Jeanie, and Jill -- through love, marriage, parenthood, and the romance of friendship as they struggle to make sense of themselves and each other and of what makes for good art, good magic, and a good life. What follows is a story only Michelle Herman could write: one of missed connections and old grievances, of loneliness and longing, of rifts and reconciliations and redemption. Close-Up depicts the fraught entanglements of the relationships we're born into and those we choose -- carefully or with abandon -- with the precision and nuance that has characterized her work over the last thirty years.]]></description><link>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3578437</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3578437</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Herman, Michelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3578437105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780578905280/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1285553171</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Girl's Guide to Life]]></title><description><![CDATA[A book of advice for young girls, originally written by a mother for her own eight-year-old daughter.]]></description><link>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C1994759</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C1994759</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Herman, Michelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://cml.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1994759105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781632260208/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=893710054</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dog]]></title><description><![CDATA[When single, childless cynical Jill Rosen adopts a nine-week-old puppy, almost by accident, she finds her routines disrupted and her wistfulness about past loves stirred.
