Summary

The story of two women and their quotidian existence in rural New York.

Conceived first as a correspondence between two women, Letters and Found Poems expresses the mystery of their intimacy in their quotidian existence in rural New York. The complexity of Chloe’s affairs creates a damaging separation that brings a tragic turn of events. A collection of poems each had written to the other serves as a supplement to the story.

“In depth of inquiry, austerity in intellectual reach, purity of language, this inquiry into two lives is poetry after my own heart.” — Djelloul Marbrook, Chronogram

Purveyor of local geography and lover of mountain hikes, David Appelbaum holds a degree in philosophy. He is past editor of Parabola magazine and, currently, publisher of Codhill Press.
