The people around us possess great power over us, and Delirium addresses that phenomenon with empathy and beauty. In this labyrinthine fever dream of stages on life’s way, there is always more than meets the eye. Insomnia, memory, distance, trauma, focus, and resolution all make an appearance in this moving poetic narrative. Delirium parallels an individual life lived over seemingly never-ending years of pain, confusion . . . and ultimately relief. https://www.cotypoynter.com/publications/fiction monthly 0.5 2021-09-30 https://www.cotypoynter.com/publications/poetry monthly 0.5 2021-09-30 https://www.cotypoynter.com/publications/nonfiction monthly 0.5 2026-02-03
