Additional information
by Jennifer Chang (Author)
Chang's poems narrate grief and loss, and intertwines them with
hope for a fresh start in the midst of new beginnings. With topics such
as frustration with our social and natural world, these poems openly
question the self and place and how private experiences like motherhood
and sorrow necessitate a deeper engagement with public life and history.
