Love, Elysian

In this collection of poetry and prose, Danea explores love in real time--reflectively, tenderly, and with an openness to the form it may take tomorrow. She moves through the world alongside this ever-changing companion, noticing its abundance in one moment and its elusiveness in the next. At times she interrogates it, at others she walks away, only to return and meet love in a changed form. Shame, curiosity, longing, and renewal each take their turn as she learns to recognize love in its evolving manifestations. This collection is an invitation--a gentle walk through the transforming landscapes of the heart, and a call for readers to consider the many ways their own capacity for love has grown, shifted, and returned to them.
