Overview

Salvage List considers the gravity of inheritance in its most visceral and primal forms. In equal turns quietly meditative and vividly present to the natural world, these poems enchant as they seek to navigate the difficulties of inhabiting our failing bodies in a failing world. Whether tending to animals in the Texas Panhandle or recalling the weight of long-held grief, Chera Hammons remains a powerful voice in this new collection.
