Against Vanishing

Seven years after her last book-and with a lot of love loss and an entire pandemic in between-this beloved poet returns. Through the lens of her late mother's wisdom  Against Vanishing digs deep as Aptowicz explores with radiant honesty the twists and turns of a life fully lived: pregnancy miscarriage motherhood grief joy laughter and sex. Nothing is off limits to this poet at the top of her craft.

Against Vanishing is a joyful homecoming a call to action and a reminder of how good it feels to remember who we really are.
