Miranda Cowley Heller, WHAT THE DEEP WATER KNOWS: Poems

Zibby Publishing author alert! Zibby chats with #1 New York Times bestselling author of THE PAPER PALACE, Miranda Cowley Heller, about her breathtaking and intimate debut poetry collection, WHAT THE DEEP WATER KNOWS. They discuss how the poems, written over 15 years, unintentionally form a powerful narrative arc about womanhood, motherhood, marriage, heartbreak, and self-reclamation. Miranda reflects on her early love of poetry, her literary lineage, and how poetry ultimately led her to fiction. She also opens up about her personal life—including the dissolution of her marriage—and how writing helped her find clarity and healing.
