OverviewIndwelling explores different ways of being inside--inside a work of art, inside the history of a place, inside a pandemic's constraints--but not necessarily at home. Isolated experience seeks the intimacy of indwelling, and that intimacy gradually expands to accommodate a broader, more global perspective. These are poems of connection attempted in the face of mortality, loss, and absence: they personalize encounters with abandoned houses, nod at other writers who will never nod back, and look in old places for alternatives to modern ruts. They dignify the mundane, past and present, and find hope there, too.

He said, 'Say that. It's enough.' But, of course, it isn't. Not when living is what living is, and clarity is comfort, and beauty kindness, and joy enabling grace. Not when her very first poem is clear and beautiful and full of joy. Not when every single poem that follows is a benediction."" --Linda McCullough Moore, author of The Book of Not So Common Prayer" Author InformationLibby Maxey is a senior editor and poetry editor at the online journal Literary Mama, where she has been a staff member since 2012.
