Away (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798888382837)

Jenna Wysong Filbrun lives with weakened immunity due to chronic illness. In Away, she writes about the COVID-19 pandemic through the eyes of the most vulnerable, with whom she identifies. She faces the crushing power of collective harm, her small taste of it leading her both to a deeper understanding of the urgency needed to address it and a greater awareness of her own participation in it. Including the Pushcart Prize-nominated poem, "Church," the poems in Away follow the author's nature-guided journey through the losses of faith, belonging, and loved ones toward a Love that is truly limitless.
