Ellen Sander’s Aquifer is a collection that ferries the reader through images of the solid and familiar, and transmits us through a luminous place of in-between that asks the reader to reimagine their own view of the world.

“These poems are libations really, offerings, blessings. The book is especially attuned to time, which gives a delicate, restrained sense of every poem being a kind of elegy.”

—Claire Milliken, poet

From Painting by the Sea

In some paintings there is a boat

as if to say there is always


some way to another

sadness, better sorrows, different regrets


The boat leaves at sunset

and we could be on it
