In her haunting new poetry collection, Hovering, Carol V. Davis explores how disease steals what makes us human. These poems explore what it means when language and memory uncouple like merry-go-round animals that break free and gallop off. Drawing on texts and traditions, the poems confront the reality of the void and the length of the journey. They delve into what is said, what is unsaid and what is lost by the people involved. These poems do not turn away, instead Davis courageously lifts dark moments to the light.I am grateful to the UCLA Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Program and its support group. And to Los Angeles Jewish Health. A special thank you to Andrea Carter Brown, my first reader for many of these poems. To my communities, immense gratitude for the before, during and after. And to friends who were there when I most needed it. As always to David and Colleen, Bernie, Jacob and Teddy. Thank you to Brad Freeman for the cover art and to Brian Jacobs at Tofu Ink Arts Press for giving these poems a home.
