Description
A searching, emotionally vivid poetry collection about the restless journey toward home, self-knowledge, and creative purpose. Moving between city life and the open landscapes of the rural South, these poems explore nature, grief, love, family, Latina identity, and the fragile boundaries between joy and suffering, life and death. With intimate observation and language that is both lyrical and conversational, the collection transforms ordinary encounters—herons, horses, kitchens, gardens, and strong coffee—into meditations on mortality, resilience, and human connection. Ultimately, it is a clear-eyed yet hopeful testament to the difficult, necessary work of being alive.
