Temporary Shelters

A temporary shelter is where we go when we’re looking for safety and comfort during difficult times. At home, it may be your family kitchen. In your favorite woods, it could be a cabin or a tent that keeps out weather and other threats. It might also be a favorite memory or the loved ones you prefer near you. The poems in this collection find Grant Clauser discovering solace and hope in shelters of many kinds as the outside world falls apart. Temporary Shelters asks (and answers) the question: Where do we take shelter, emotionally and physically, in moments of crisis?
