The Finder, Poems of a Private Investigator - Julie Bergman

. .

Résumé :
Julie Bergman's second published collection of poetry, The Finder, Poems of a Private Investigator, moves through the intriguing world of the licensed private detective, intermingled with the author's interior dialogues. The nature of her work dictates confidentiality, but under the guise of poetry, she plots fragments of her reality. She pours memories of her experiences into a sleeve of words, and stirs the mix of her professional life with her inner life. She was a finder always, and vowed early to follow that path, making a study of World War II and Cold War intelligence while still in her teens. After trips into music and journalism, the private sector provided opportunity and creative freedom to solve complex investigative problems; corporate, industrial, environmental, personal. While still holding her secrets close, she brings the reader into the shadows, where the past and present find simple or ominous resolution.
