“With poems like shards of sea glass, Lowe is searching for a home, a mother, a song. A debut full of sea, sky, and promise.” 

— Julian Aguon, author of No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies

“In this haunting debut collection, Arielle Taitano Lowe sifts through a ‘graveyard of Indigenous traditions’ to reclaim poem by poem CHamoru culture, and word by word its own language. The author is ‘soul fishing.’ Readers will be grateful to be invited along.”

Kimberly Blaeser, Wisconsin Poet Laureate 2015-2016 and author of Ancient Light
