Three Names for Longing gathers prose-poems across three untranslatable words - Sehnsucht, the German longing for a home the heart knows before the mind can name it; Yugen, the Japanese awareness of beauty so deep it exceeds language; and Hiraeth, the Welsh grief of yearning for a person, place, or version of life just beyond reach. Moving between desire and devotion, tenderness and hunger, these pieces explore what it means to love intensely, miss deeply, and still find words for the ache. For airport waiting rooms and sleepless nights. For everyone who has felt too much and said too little.
