This collection of poems are the record of the lives of a married couple who emigrate from Estonia to Canada during the first half of this century. The woman, a preacher's daughter and musician from coastal Estonia, is the narrator for the first 5 poems of Part One, Leaving Estonia. Her husband's voice interweaves with hers for the rest of the section. The man, an estate foreman, merchant, and farmer, is the speaker in Part Two, High Canada. The woman's voice returns as the major narrator in Part Three, Easter Snow. Voices Over Water is dedicated to Viktoria and Villem Nurske. The events in this book are fictitious.
