28 February 2026
How do you define home? Is it a person, a place, a thing? In what we leave behind, Katherine J Zumpano looks to answer these questions. In this deeply personal poetry collection, Zumpano's poems explore themes of belonging, family, and loss. ""how do you process grief when loss doesn't stop?"" she writes in 'elegies for a small town.' ""I want to write of home. instead I write elegies for a place I cannot love.""
