Synopsis

Scatterlings are people uprooted from their origins and placed in circumstances unfamiliar to them. Here, Zeena draws upon fragmentary observations about life and different cultures, as well as philosophical asides to write about immigration, starting over again in an adopted country and relationships. Subtle portraits and symbolism in each poem leave one appreciating the ties that bind us and the uncertainties of life.
