In Wherever We Float, That's Home, Maya Tevet Dayan weaves myth, fable, and family legend into a tapestry of contemporary poetry. The poems transport readers to a world where past, present, and future converge, inviting them to explore themes of identity, displacement, and belonging. The speaker, a wife, mother, and nomad, embarks on a quest for her place in the world, guided by generations of women who offer wisdom and challenge her along the way.
This collection resonates with anyone who has experienced loss, sought connection, or yearned for a sense of home. Tevet Dayan's deceptively simple language navigates the seen and unseen, reminding us of the universe's fragility and our own capacity for wonder. Discover a world where family defines you and allows you to grow. Perfect for readers of contemporary poetry, translated works, and those interested in women's voices and Israeli literature.
