This searching debut collection moves deeply in all directions, coming home to memories inherited and held in the land. Following images like guideposts—a grandmother's floral dress, sour cherry trees, milk teeth, a storm over the lake—Connie Braun explores the ways grief, motherhood, love, and desire uproot and transplant a life. Moving through birthing rooms and forest fires,
Moonroads
is a lyrical and intimate negotiation between lost and found, light and dark.
