What's Underneath

En savoir plus sur le livre

We spend most of our lives skating across surfaces, seldom stopping to think about the underpinnings and background stories that brought us to the current moment and place. Jane Sasser's What's Underneath explores the ways in which we are grounded by memory and the physical world, our own beginnings and heritage. Whether remembering a childhood on a farm or reflecting on the present time, the poems consider how we are haunted by experiences we cannot change. The collection ends facing the future with an homage to beloved dogs, the steady devotion that waits for us at the end of each day, enriching our lives and growing new roots.
