Sold by Mighty Ape
Hospice catalogs a decade in the poet’s life marked by becoming a mother while supporting a terminally ill parent, reckoning with the intimate work of caregiving. Formal explorations grapple with the twinned dynamics of mothering and motherlessness. Throughout the collection, Molly Akin considers how we trace our origins and inheritance within the imperfections of memory. Hospice employs precise and deliberate syntax to examine universally human and deeply personal themes.
