AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Increments of the Everyday is a collection of poetry which traces processes of change, loss and the possibilities of recovery. The diverse experiences of grief, injury, pandemic lockdowns and responses to varying life experiences are explored in five sections: ‘Hiatus Diary,’ ‘Impossible,’ ‘Woman Watching,’ ‘Palette’ and ‘Increments of the Everyday.’ Rooted in the momentary life of the everyday, these poems offer imagistic and compassionate reflection on the human capacity for insight into our own vulnerabilities and the ability to continue.'

The collection is wide- ranging and attentive to “the breathy currents of other worlds” (p. 13) that become legible, or at least visible, when the pace of everyday life slows or stops.'
