It contends with failed potential and the certain uncertainty of the future, while interrogating the past for clues that might explain why, as the speaker bemoans, \"there are never enough nails in the coffin of poor choices.\" While Egger throws confetti on the quotidian, she disarms the reader with earnestness and vulnerability.
