Confluence

Samantha DeFlitch. Confluence. Broadstone Books, March 2021. 

Resident of Portsmouth.

Synopsis: "These are poems of visiting the outskirts—the edges of rooms, deserts, amusement parks and cities. They’re about never fitting in and never knowing how to be in the moment, the reverberations of grief refusing to let us settle down. So what a surprise then, that Confluence also offers much in the way of consolation. Turns out that along the peripheries is still plenty of wonder." --Shelley Girdner, author of You Were That White Bird
