“And Yet... fills with life spaces reserved for remembering familial and historical loss and offers a sensuous ‘solace of the present.’”

—Roger Greenwald, author of An Opening in the Vertical World

Penned during a time of stillness and isolation, the poems in And Yet... are anything but confined. Award-winning documentary filmmaker, poet, and literary translator Eileen Thalenberg captures fleeting moments and transforms them into timeless reflections on love, family, loss, and the enduring human spirit.

Drawing inspiration from art, music, and mythology, Thalenberg’s poetic voice is both intimate and expansive. From the elegance of Parisian streets to the stillness of a Sabbath evening, from the resilience of sparrows to the silent power of remembrance, her poems are rich with imagery, insight, and grace.
