There are places in Maine the tourists don't see. Places where the fog doesn't lift. Where secrets root deep beneath pine needles. Where things wait-and sometimes whisper back. In Hollow Pines and Hungry Things, poet Shaina R. Fraser unearths the haunted beauty of Downeast Maine in a chilling collection of poems inspired by truth, dream, and nightmare. These verses don't just tell stories-they confess them. Some are memories. Some are warnings. Some are so strange they can only be real. Locals may recognize the backroads, voices, and bones of this collection. Outsiders will be left wondering how close they've come to something they can't quite name. This book is not for the faint of heart
