Description

A poetry collection full of the betweenwheres of things. Within its four directions/sections, the speaker is storm, a moonroad, the chiaroscuro of light and shadow, and the daughter of a people who have experienced homelessness and who have built houses, and who have made homes migrating from Germany to Russia and Poland to Canada. Between two poles, between sea, river, lake, emotion, light and shadow, the bodies of man and woman, these poems comprise a map of longing and belonging, traveling ancestral roads and moonroads to the present moment, and toward the last compass point of the spiritual wayfarer.
