Memory
Description
Memory is a luminous centerpiece of Distributary, now presented on its own as a handmade, limited-edition chapbook.
Each of the 126 copies—100 numbered and 26 lettered—is signed by the author and individually crafted by hand. Presented as a standalone work, Memory invites readers to encounter the poem in its own right: expansive, finely wrought, and wholly immersive.
