Inhaltsverzeichnis

Sara Henning is the author of View from True North, cowinner of the 2017 Crab Orchard Series in Poetry Open Competition Award and the 2019 High Plains Book Award. Her honors include the Lynda Hull Memorial Poetry Prize, the George Bogin Memorial Award, the Allen Ginsberg Poetry Award, and awards from the Sewanee Writers' Conference and the Vermont Studio Center. Her work has been published in journals such as Quarterly West, Crab Orchard Review, Witness, Crazyhorse, Meridian, and the Cincinnati Review. She lives and writes in Huntington, West Virginia, where she teaches at Marshall University.



This poignant collection of masterful elegies centers on the revelatory ways in which the speaker reconciles love, loss, and grief's legacy. Following her mother's battle with colon cancer and her own crisis of meaning, Henning culminates the collection with her rediscovery of joy in life's small moments.
