Kindlings

By Rachel Linnea Brown

The simultaneously searing and heartfelt poems of Kindlings compress three months of the author's life into verse. Distilled from diary entries, Kindlings opens with uncertainty but erupts in self-assurance as the poet and her family return home to Kansas over the summer of 2023. As Kindlings reveals, even amid transition, risk, and doubt, personal peace can be both sought and cultivated, gently nurtured and fiercely protected. In the end, Kindlings reclaims kindness as strength, restraint as power, nature as lodestar, and attentiveness to small things as joy.
