The Mouth of a River - Paperback

by Hannah Adams (Author)

The Mouth of a River is a contemporary free verse poetry collection full of reverence for the little things and acceptance of life's big unknowns.

With warmth, curiosity, and honesty, Hannah Adams writes about nature, embodiment, joy, grief, relationships, and the beauty of simply being alive. Each section of the collection draws from different aspects of a river's landscape and movement.

The section "The Mouth" explores language- how words shape our experience, reveal it, and sometimes fail to contain it.

The section "Body of Water" features poems influenced by the author's work as a yoga teacher and somatic specialist. Readers who practice yoga, meditation, or the Alexander Technique may recognize these themes throughout.

This collection encourages you to pay closer attention-to the natural world, to yourself, and to the words we use to try to capture it all.

Enjoy the dive.
