Between Planets

Description

In Between Planets, Ashley McKinstry explores themes of motherhood, memory, and everyday
life by tracing objects, such as pantyhose and household bleach, through the past and present.
This creative writing collection includes a lyric essay, various vignettes, prose poems, and lyrical
lists. Each piece delves into the writer’s experience with quotidian objects people use, reuse,
and dispose of daily, asking how the objects tell the stories of who we are and become and how
the objects connect us to each other, to our planet, and to planets beyond.
