In this hauntingly illustrated debut collection by Elaine Ellis, readers are taken on a harrowing journey through tragedy, addiction, and loss.
Each poem in the collection stands on its own, but is also woven together with all of the others to create a longer narrative poem that is the book.
Readers will feel like they are going on a journey with the poet through the emotions and questions that attend the tragic loss of a loved one. They will emerge with a sense of how fragile and beautiful life is.
