East Axis: a second collection of poetry - Paperback

by Madison Hoff (Author)

East Axis is a book grounded in the metaphor of mapping life both from metaphorical perspectives and through memory. The poems are not confined to a linear journey but move in spirals and constant redirections. While directionlessness is part of the tapstry, there's some sense of pull or magnetic return, to a place we circle around, land, and leave, again and again.

The journey of East Axis is about not being allowed to follow a traditional path but through assembling a map from fragments, we create our own winding path, one that occasionally contradicts, then aligns, over and over.
