Moonroads: Poems

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.
