Description
"Liza Flum's Hover focuses on queer polyamorous families, considering the ways people in radical family structures are both highly visible and erased. From hummingbirds to stars, historical records, and cemetery monuments, Flum searches for images to represent lives and loves like her own and to find lasting traces of queer and chosen family.

The book explores sexuality, love, reproductive choice, and infertility in sonnets and expansive prose meditations.
