In this collection, Nancy K. Jentsch takes the reader to familiar places where ambiguity and conjecture reign, where no single response seems to be the right one. But rather than encouraging her reader to tiptoe past discomfort, loss, and unanswered questions, the poet's words attempt to illuminate those fragile spaces, braiding despair with hope and “mapping a yes to what/can yet be holy.”
