The book begins with the author's childhood in a small town in the Midwest. She describes her early love of language and storytelling, and how she found solace in the poems of Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman. As she grew older, she began to explore her own family history, and she discovered a rich tapestry of stories that had been passed down through generations.

In her early twenties, the author left home to attend college in the East. She immersed herself in the study of literature and history, and she began to write her own poems. Her work was soon published in literary journals, and she began to gain recognition as a rising star in the literary world.

But even as her career flourished, the author felt a growing sense of unease. She longed to return to her roots and to explore the land that had shaped her. She quit her job and moved back to the Midwest, where she bought a small farm and began to write again.

In Afterlight, the author reflects on her journey to find her voice and her place in the world. She writes about the power of poetry to heal and inspire, and about the importance of connecting with the land and our ancestors. She also writes about the challenges of being a woman and an artist, and about the sacrifices she has made to pursue her dreams.

Afterlight is a beautifully written and deeply moving memoir. It is a book that will resonate with anyone who has ever searched for their own voice, their own history, or their own home.
