Overview

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Paper Palace, a Reese's Book Club Pick, comes a debut poetry collection that paints a moving portrait of a rich life from childhood to love to marriage to motherhood to divorce and beyond. ""Breathtaking . . . will change the way you see the world."" --Daisy Goodwin, author of The American Heiress If I could fly backward, I would. To the safety of branches, to the time when my heart still raced for you, twelve hundred beats a minute.

Suffused with the natural world and the landscape of Cape Cod, where many of the poems are set, What the Deep Water Knows contemplates love in all the seasons.
