In these poems, harm and bereavement seep into ordinary days, warping them while sharpening their detail. Spices and snacks in the kitchen, braids being cut, blows that land or narrowly miss: compressed images and twisting phrases follow the logic of remembering and probe the uneasy zone where words, bodies and experience meet. Parents, God, war, death and childhood flicker past in a dreamlike world of hands that cook and hands that let go.
