Infused with images of the natural world, Sheltered in Place is a braid of three poetic sequences. The first focuses on a grown child’s relationship with an aging parent living in a memory ward; the second focuses on a parent marking the growth of a child from her birth through her teen years; the third sequence, which gives the collection its title, examines life in the early days of the pandemic when shutdowns were imposed in the US. Including traditional and prose poems, the collection has been praised for its vivid descriptions and its explorations of memory and faith.
