Emory Hall’s debut poetry collection, Made of Rivers, intricately maps the anatomy of a river, surging with themes of loss, grief, and the sacred currents of transformation and motherhood. Brimming with magic and profound depth, Made of Rivers will wash anew all those who come to it, revealing hidden corners of the self yearning to be discovered. It explores the feminine and draws upon Emory’s own wellspring of life experiences, hardships, triumphs, and revelations. Her work sheds light on vital themes of healing and self-care, offers solace to those navigating profound loss, and strikes a chord with mothers, both seasoned and new, who find their own journey mirrored in the pages of her poetry.
