This was a beautiful reflection on a mother-daughter relationship that has to endure memory loss. The beauty that Moffett finds in things we usually deem as scary, like spiders, enhances the uncomfortableness of seeing someone you love, not being able to do what they want to do.

I was shocked by how much I loved this book. This book is perfect if you need to reflect on your relationship with your family, your body, or any other part of your life that's been particularly difficult. I needed to read this when I did, and I'd highly recommend this book.

How have I never come across Rosalie Moffett's poetry before?! This collection is stunning, elaborate, and emotional, its details twisting together beautifully. I'd immediately give it to friends to read if I didn't also want to keep it to reread. I'll definitely be following Rosalie Moffett more in the future!
