Exceeds Us

A lyrical exploration of love, loss, and the natural world.

Exceeds Us delves into the complexities of new love against a backdrop of underlying illness, reminding us that existence is transient. These poems straddle the line between reality and dream, inviting readers to explore the landscapes of the heart and the world around us. A boy becomes a field, a girl drowns in the rivers of her own body--intimate and expansive, these poems invite notice and inquiry.

Osowski's collection exceeds the boundaries of a single life, exploring themes of connection, transformation, and the enduring power of nature. For readers who appreciate contemporary poetry, nature-inspired verse, and explorations of love and loss.
