Hovering

In her haunting new poetry collection, Hovering, Carol V. Davis explores how disease steals what makes us human. These poems explore what it means when language and memory uncouple like merry-go-round animals that break free and gallop off. Drawing on texts and traditions, the poems confront the reality of the void and the length of the journey. They delve into what is said, what is unsaid and what is lost by the people involved. These poems do not turn away, instead Davis courageously lifts dark moments to the light.
