Poetry

Perfect-bound paperback | 5.5 x 8.5 | 106 pages | April 2, 2024 | 978-1961864009
In These Hollowed Bones, birds are the conduit for conversations of internal emotions and the natural world. This collection ties together the themes of loss, marriage, and ecology, topics that are at once personal and universal. The voices contained within these poems speak of the isolation felt by both avian and human due to migration and loss of habitat, loss of home. Nature and bird lovers will find solace and self-recognition within these pages.
