Nadya Aisenberg passed away in April of 1999. She had been working on a subject that had occupied her for over a decade. Through narrative and poetry, feminism and pacifism, Aisenberg believed that forgiveness was the key to understanding that often-elusive mystery that is we. Her work, including Before We Were Strangers, Leaving Eden, and this final collection, Measures, collect poems that describe a search for a kind of peace in exotic settings all over the world and at home, in the solitary and communal, combining the languages of natural and social science, philosophy, and art. Nadya Aisenberg taught at Tufts University, Wellesley College and at Brandeis University.
