Set primarily between Rome and the American Midwest, Debra Hall's poems move through embassy lines, a hospital on the Tiber, catacombs, hospice rooms, mountain trails, and a family kitchen. Hall attends to small, exact particulars-a deli counter, bear bells, a peppermint, a rosary, hail at the window, a grandson's birth-and lets them carry the weight of what cannot be said. The work stays close to the body and to the world. The pieces in it mark a crossing, and the daily work of living in the aftermath of survival.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Simmerling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1997737051\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781997737056\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Write Where We Belong Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.09d","brand":"Mary Simmerling","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48089493930239,"sku":"9781997737056","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98763dfc-c691-4483-95fd-23b458ed02fe.jpg?v=1769110609","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-the-current-cannot-swallow-mary-simmerling-9781997737056","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
