In Fidelity

By Courtney O'Banion Smith

How do you stay faithful to the truth, to memory, to others? What do you do after you're betrayed or you betray another? Winner of the 2022 Catherine Case Lubbe Manuscript Award sponsored by the Poetry Society of Texas, In Fidelity explores how we remember the past and imagine the future while remaining true to our memories, ourselves, and each other.

From poems examining loss, love, and the ecological ramifications of our decisions to a love triangle during the Great Depression and surreal, ekphrastic poems portraying the marriage of a mermaid and a werewolf, these poems expose how we make choices and make a way despite and because of love.
