Back Jacket
How do we redefine the self when memory begins to deteriorate?
This question is at the heart of Ghost Work, a suite of poems that explores a son's gradual loss of his father from dementia. In compassionate, well-crafted pantoums, triolets, ghazals, and sonnets, Rob Colman probes family connection, digging into the liminal space memory preserves between our natural and built environments. Ghost Work is at once a tribute to a lost family member, and a testament to the fragility of the human condition.
