Table of ContentsReviewsIt s a generous and warm collection, and Christle reminds us that to be alive is not to be safe from trauma, but to be aware of how intact one can remain in spite of pain and furious joy. Publishers Weekly With sincerity and intelligence, Christle's book bravely seeks connection amidst chaos; in doing so, she offers a model for how to find meaning in the impossibly brief and immeasurable. Rather than seeking to dampen the impact of fear, these poems offer a nimble portrait of its daily iterations.
