Jigsaw Puzzling

Writer of poetry, essays, memoir, and fiction-Denise Low did what so many of us did in the spring of 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic sent us to spend long days at home. Denise's jigsaw puzzling went well beyond pictures put together piece-by-piece, however. The 15 essays in this book document the pestilence that impacted our entire world. In them, Low explores the very culture of jigsaw puzzles while providing poetic lessons in art, geography, history, and more.


"I never underestimate the power of a single puzzle piece. It fits within a whole, like each moment of my unfolding life story."
-Denise Low
