The Words We Left Behind

Elysian: (adj.) blissful, delightful

My favorite memories are the ones that never seem noteworthy—the ones you never tell at parties or recount to your family, the ones that don’t have a plot or a reason. There’s something in those excerpts of life, something so beautifully, achingly human.

These are the moments that matter the most.

These are the words we leave behind.

Callie Byrnes's debut book uses prose poetry to explore language, memory, and the profundity in small, everyday instances. Using words and their definitions as the canvas to explore the emotions and experiences that are specific yet universally understood, The Words We Left Behind is a love letter to the moments that make up a life.
