Discover the heartfelt and introspective poetry of Daneen Bergland in *The Goodbye Kit*. Published by Airlie Press, this paperback collection offers a personalized approach to exploring themes of transition, identity, and connection. Thoughtfully crafted, it provides readers with supportive and resonant content that invites reflection and emotional engagement.
About the Book:
Narrative but elliptical, The Goodbye Kit is awash in lyric that thrills as it laments. Themes of transgression and longing infuse these poems about girlhood, marriage, parenthood, aging, and nature. Mapping the charged terrain of human relationship, and marked by a feral sensuality, they explore ecologies of intimacy made tangible through both experience and witness. Their impulse is to capture and project beauty and loss, offering a view of our mutable and tender selves through “wolf-colored glasses,” revealing us as the beautiful, culpable animals we are.
About the Author:
