In the Field Between Us is a friendship in poems, an epistolary
project by Molly McCully Brown and Susannah Nevison that ponders
disability and the possibility of belonging in the aftermath of lifelong
medical intervention. In the beginning, the poem-letters express, in
gorgeous harmony, the psychic and physiological complexities of
surviving remedy. As the book unfolds, the writers encounter a natural
world around them that increasingly seems to mirror the traumas they
have endured. Out of its tracing of innumerable scars, this book emits a
perseverance, a spirit of communion, and a hopeful resolve that rises
out of the poets' attention to detail and their profound connection to
one another.
