Z. Randall Stroope
In this powerful work, Stroope conveys the remarkable story of Helen May Martin through his own poetic lenses. He felt it important to focus on Helen’s incessant courage and desire to dominate every hurdle – demonstrated by the piano’s unyielding rhythmic piano lines. The words, “touch, feel, sense, and know” – like rotating planets around Helen’s life and passion – were anchors to her joy and fortitude to mount any challenge.
