Like a gravitational force, Tasnuva Hayden pulls readers to the outermost reaches of space where stars die, planets orbit, and we reach “the final boundaries of stellar observation.” At the same time, Hayden’s poems zoom us into the smaller parts of existing with clothespins, teapots, and milk teeth in freezer bags. Hayden’s collection occupies a macro- and micro-space to make meaning out of “those small bits of dialogue pressed between book covers” in a way readers will not soon forget.
