"With her characteristic sparse lyricism, Chase Twichell explores how the past persistently parallels the present to reimagine the self. Her eighth collection lifts up the joy of the moment while mourning a changing world. In Things as It Is--purposefully not things as they are--the present and past parallel and intermingle. Meditating on a litany of formative moments, Twichell's clear-as-a-bell voice delivers visceral and emotionally resonant lyrics, elegies, and confessions" -- Provided by publisher.
