Desert Elegy : A Collection of Narrative Poems

Featuring poetry awarded by the Academy of American Poets, Desert Elegy is an emotionally-driven chapbook containing poems that tell stories, both minor and catastrophic, to encompass the many experiences of life we often overlook. Rhodes, a professional journalist, author, and graduate of the Carver Center literary arts program, seeks to tell unexpected stories from underrepresented perspectives. Exploring journeys of grief, recovery, relationships, and more, Desert Elegy's 22 poems anthologize life's experiences in a chapbook containing both published works and striking new content.
