Dear Inheritors - Kathy Engel

Dear Inheritors moves from the intimacy of home and family to community to social movement, to other countries, back to dirt, river birch and sycamore, to the sea. Opening with the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, looking back to childhood awakenings, the poems work against linear chronology, raising questions of responsibility and culpability, leaning into the spiritual, a world of question.
