The story moves between future and past, interweaving myth and reality, memory and confabulation, and loss and survival, eventually transmuting fear to forgiveness.
"Deborah Davitt's ambitious new collection begins one autumn between wars with a woman's meeting with a fey king, and from there we are led on a lyrical journey into realms at once mysterious and familiar. You might know the name of Oberon, and yet not know him at all. You might recognize the Lady in the Black Domino, and then again, maybe not. Poignant themes of loss, searching and forgetting pervade this enchanting text. At one point, a character asks "Are you done denying who you are, denying those who help you, denying those you’ve lost..." and readers may well marvel at the way Davitt's poems explore the answer. Before long we learn the important, imaginative answers to such questions as what happens when we first meet ourselves or rescue one another, and sometimes, when we let go. Where do we find our true homes? Take your time with this compelling collection, and return to it" --Bryan Thao Worra, SFPA President”
