In this collection, Chris Bailey documents the complexities of contemporary rural life in Prince Edward Island. Through a lens of sharp observation, the poems navigate the intersection of personal experience and global anxieties, addressing themes of climate change, labor, and familial bonds with a candid, confessional tone that rejects pastoral sentimentality.
