The poems speak to the impact of trauma - loss, injury and becoming a caretaker - with a determined voice. As this snapshot of life unravels on the page, the poems urgently grasp onto bits of strength and joy anywhere they can be found. Preserving the Unraveled poses essential questions in any journey towards healing: Where can we find strength? How do we regain our footing? What is worth preserving? The book is a courageous quest for hope.
