A Vicarious Sustenance

By Kay Strayed

A Vicarious Sustenance is a collection of poems mimicking a soliloquy of waves. Each piece carries a breath-intimate and dynamic-dissolving into the critique of larger waters. It is about survival, rejection, loss, love, becoming, rebellion, and more. Whether you're swimming through a memory, basking in regret, or yearning for a home, these tides will help you stay afloat. This book bears witness to a walk along the shore. Sit by the beach, dip your toe, or dive into the sea-let the waters carry you.
