Description: In her debut full collection of poems, Ingrid Ruthig records the ebb and flow of individual life through time, landscape, and this collective existence. How we connect with the past, where we are now, and our personal convergences, despite our inherent separateness, are all part of the journey. Ruthig also explores the need to create, to build a deeper sense of self, of belonging: questioning, observing, then striving to respond. Her voice is confident, concentrated, wry. This is a book of poems about the dynamic of being, and our shifting perception of who we are from one moment to the next.
