How hollow is this earth / how full of want. Beneath this echo, Many Waters unfolds. Evangeline Sanders steers us through caves, creeks, pluff mud, and tide pools, charting the ways water shapes memory and transformation. These poems move like currents - meditative yet keenly alert - carrying anxiety, wonder, and humor in the same careful breath. This is a collection to read slowly, to carry with you, to turn over and over like a stone in your pocket.
-Kwoya Fagin Maples, author, Long Eye
In Many Waters, Evangeline Sanders explores anxiety and mortality with candor and elegance, finding insight in delightfully unexpected places, whether a guinea pig's affection, an invasion of ants, or airplane turbulence. From gas station bathrooms where grace appears in ordinary kindness to conversations with anxiety itself, these poems transform small moments of discernment into resonant and durable wisdom. Here the reader finds water in all its forms: the kind that drowns, the kind that baptizes, the kind that simply drips from cave ceilings, teaching the radical patience of deep time. With remarkable emotional range and vivid imagery, Many Waters reflects to us what we inherit, what we carry, and what we can bear.
-Joel Brouwer, author, As Long as We're Here
