Changing of the Tides: & Other Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781073100774)

Changing of the Tides & Other Poems is the debut poetry collection by poet Emma Conlon. In three sections, "high tide", "low tide", and "changing tides", the poet guides the reader through the tidal waves of first love, the hurricanes of heartbreak, and the painful process of picking up the pieces and putting yourself back together.

Written between 2018 and 2020, Changing of the Tides explores themes of love and loss, grief and hope, growing up and letting go. Through poignant nostalgia and lush oceanic imagery, Changing of the Tides will take you on a journey across oceans and across time itself.

"With every piece, I could taste more and more of the salt in the air, sea foam curling around my ankles... [Conlon's poetry] is rich with oceanic imagery... reading "Sea Songs" was like the ocean coming home to me." -Kait Quinn on "Sea Songs" by Emma Conlon
