“We travel into the details of life, death, and grief with an observer’s eye through a place where, as the poet writes, ‘there is no handbook, no map.’ These tender, honest, and incredibly moving poems pull us into a story where what is holy is all around us, where Vorreyer’s words are ‘blending all the broken parts together/in a silhouette that resembles prayer.’ It is a skillful poet who can recognize thegrief, and through poetry, carve light where loss was and endure what we think we can’t.” - Kelli Russell Agodon, author of Dialogue with Rising Tides
