How We Argue: Poems

From Ohio to Michigan, Sharon Rose-Kourous reflects back on the quiet rural life of the communities clustered near Lake Erie. How We Argue showcases the strong, stubborn nature of the people of the Midwest, recalls childhood adventures along the lakeshore, chronicles small-town reactions to the pandemic, and charts the fears and frustrations of the modern world. These poems are the driftwood and bracken found along various beach-lines of the poet's Midwestern life, banded together by perseverance and a deep understanding of people.
