Winner of the 2018 Michael Waters Poetry Prize
Winner of the The Society of Midland Authors 2020 Poetry Award

The Spinning Place considers the body as the origin of ecstasy and agony, revealing how language--its possibilities and limits--bridges us to one another, but also shatters intimacy. The collection's three sections examine origin, exile, and the reconciliation of praise and sorrow with lyric precision and the heart of storytelling. The poems ask us to behold the ordinary astonishment of birth, motherhood, and faith: to witness the everyday as though it were sacred.
