Whether feeling loss or feeling lost, there's a lot of regret and realization to be found in REMNANT.

The 62 poems and song... More > lyrics contained within are definitely intended for mature readers, as Jen M. looks at the intense emotions surrounding trauma, depression, and denial. Unlike her first book, which was mainly a compilation, nearly all of the pieces in REMNANT were written within the first six months of 2010. Jen M. hopes that readers will be able to better understand how people cope with trauma using a myriad of expressions, including self-imposed isolation. One part angst and anger, one part amnesia-like whimsy, all contained in the 72 pages of this follow-up to Silent Songs (2007).
