A Puget Sounder by birth, Judith Barker Kvinsland presents a collection of fifteen, inter-related personal essays that invite readers to accompany her through the twists and turns that disturbed the calm of an otherwise, ordinary life. Her memoir, told in memorable, lyrical prose, is a recollection of the time in post-World War II America, as well as a remembrance of place, while growing up in rural South Kitsap County in northwest Washington state. She reminds us how the memories of significant persons and specific places can impact us and be relied upon to give us strength, inspiration, and insight as we maneuver through turning points in our lives. Kvinsland concludes her memoir with present-day realities that continue to disturb the calm in adulthood, events that readers may have already experienced, or may eventually face: empty nests; new, unfamiliar living locations; serious illness; aging parents; loss and painful grief; and ultimately, the joys of grandparenting. "Disturbing the Calm: A Memoir of Time and Place," is an honest, often humorous, heartfelt telling of a life that will stir readers to reflect upon their own lives and say, "I know just how she felt."
