Home Beneath the Church - Paperback

by Lauren Davis (Author)

These poems showcase frustrations and deep-rooted hungers so authentically human we almost catch the heartbeat's throb in each line we ghost over. Every part of nature - the lover, the moon, snow, the sky, hummingbirds mating, a heard of elks - is worshiped on these pages, and with its incantations about how a woman resides within the (un)holy rooms of her body's longing and belongings, Home Beneath the Church crafts a home, a sanctuary, for any reader to cohabitate with the language of the prismatic familial and sacred.
