About this Book

Drawing on the beauty of the Southern Ohio hills and Northern

Appalachia, Barbara Costas-Biggs's debut poetry collection, Broken On

the Wheel, weaves together marriage, motherhood, and memory into a

tapestry of creation and reclamation. With bold strokes and striking

detail, Biggs mines the messiness of modern life, the reawakenings we

strive to experience, and the faith that comes with trying to fix what

appears unfixable.
