"Walking past a mirrored building, I think of you. The world without you in it. I wouldn't recognize my own face." How do you hold fast to another person, knowing all along you must ultimately let go? Spanning over a decade, the poems in examine questions of mortality and the body, identity, nature, and place. Part journal, part survival notes, is the story of a daughter and her father; a portrait in reverse. It's a lament, a reckoning, a prayer, an offering.
