Overview

A brave and intimate look at family, trauma, and childhood through vivid and crushing poems. SANDHOUR explores the interiors of family, home, and place with gravitas and deep concentration. These poems startle and shine, distilling traditional lyric meditation into something new. Ostrom's original approach to syntax reveals larger mythologies at work, charting a course for readers through themes of memory, loss, and the search for meaning. With highly artful language, SANDHOUR is unlike anything you will read this year. This collection is for readers of contemporary poetry who appreciate introspective themes and personal narratives. Discover a powerful voice that rearranges the familiar into something startlingly new.
