- Book Synopsis
- Included in LitHub's Most Anticipated Poetry of 2026 Steeplechase explores multiple landscapes, including Mississippi and its many church steeples; countries known and unknown; cities and inhabitants both aspirational and lost. Its voice is humorous, bewildered, disillusioned, hopeful. The book's temporal setting is the two years of extra life granted a partner after catastrophic illness and surgery: love's last compelling season.
