Deep Ends - Paperback

by Roberta Schultz (Author)

Deep Ends explores the fragile balance between treading life's turbulent waters and mastering a survival float. A father invents his brand of cross-chest carry to save himself and his grandson from drowning in a "current of light and sound." A mother tosses her young daughter into the deep end of a public pool in hopes she will learn to swim. A daughter becomes a lifeguard, a teacher inspired by Dolly Parton's "can-do" attitude, and an empowerment drummer. Family, grief, survival, and climate change are the themes in this poet's second full-length collection.
