Poet Diane Brown has made good use of her private life in her writing over the years - much to her mothers' chagrin, who probably wouldn't appreciate her new book much, either. Taking My Mother to the Opera is a long, poetic memoir about her parents' lives and the secrets and mysteries all families keep.
