About this book
Ys Goldt’s Shelves of Memory gathers poems shaped by grief, yearning, and love, dwelling in the hushed places where feelings often resist easy language. It reaches toward experiences that are hard to say aloud: the familiar face still sought in a crowd, the message that never arrives, the ache of what remains unfinished.
This collection is written for readers who have loved despite separation, whether that divide comes in miles, in passing years, in lives altered beyond repair, or in death. It speaks to those who carry part of themselves with someone else, who keep living beside uncertainty, and who know there can be solace in remembering what can no longer come back.
