Description
A luminous and wide-ranging collection of poems, this volume attends closely to the ordinary details that connect people across borders, histories, and cultures. Naomi Shihab Nye explores family life in southern Texas, forgotten books, small ferns, and the intertwined experiences of Jews and Palestinians, revealing how seemingly modest encounters can carry profound emotional and moral weight. Centered on human relationships and the practice of attentive living, these poems transform everyday voices, objects, and coincidences into sources of insight, compassion, and connection.
