Gunilla Norris has written a book that spans decades of her life. She invites us to wonder what calls us into recollection. It is always a mystery when an inner voice asks for attention. In a long life, that call can be insistent and want a welcome for a vast array of experiences. Gunilla likens this to the calling of farm animals back to the barn after foraging all day which she witnessed in northern Sweden as a child. Meaningful experiences,...

Some Bodies in the Grief Bed is Rick Benjamin's latest attempt to find the intersection of the human and the non-human in the context of this earth's ecology. A poem about migrations butterflies and others make might be followed by another appearing in the life of a family, and this poet is always trying to face down the distinction between them. At the same time, he is deeply interested in every detail of either: giraffe's eating an Acacia's ...

Logos is a bildungsroman about the anonymous author of the original Gospel, set amid the kaleidoscopic mingling of ancient cultures. In A.D. 66, Jacob is one of Jerusalem's privileged Greco-Roman Jews. When Roman soldiers murder his parents and his beloved sister disappears in a pogrom led by the Roman procurator, he joins Israel's rebellion against Rome. The rebellion he helps to foment leads to more tragedy-personal and, ultimately, cosmic: ...

This is poetry kindled by weeks in wilderness. Its muse is nature, which encompasses both the wild beauty of earth and the mystery of self and its sometimes erotic, sometimes mystical, relationship with the other. The poems are lyrical, tonal, evocative-enamored in a sensual way of being, but also drawn at times toward the counterpart of non-being. The palpable world of natural detail is brought forth, yet the poems also echo with nuance, innu...

The headwaters of Robbing the Pillars begin deep in the anthracite country of Pennsylvania and wind their way through mountain tributaries before reaching the Susquehanna River. These poems venture out west through smeared Nebraskan skies, up wild Washington waters, and into the Siskiyou Mountains as meteors split the sky on fire. They traverse the wet woods of Maine along the West Branch of the Penobscot River to the peak of Katahdin. They hi...

Where does language originate, especially the language of poetry? In the brain or the emotions? In the images we behold, or in the memory? In this deeply observant collection, Amy Nawrocki asks, "What language do you have / for the barren days when nothing catches your eye?" And although "The contortionist is unable to speak / from all her sword swallowing, " Nawrocki whose brain and emotions once survived a near-fatal illness, is able to be, ...

In this second collection, McLaughlin wields a boldly ecstatic voice to explore a confluence of themes: wanderings on the wild earth, relations with more-than-human presences, engagement with indigenous ceremony, reckoning with catholicism, the swirl of young family life. These heart scores are delivered in a euphonic, incantatory brand of storytelling that delights and provokes at the depths.

Dickerson's lovingly crafted narratives take us to waters from sockeye spawning streams of Alaska's Lake Clark and Katmai National Parks, to Rocky Mountain rivers in the national parks and forests of Montana and Wyoming, to the little brook trout creeks in his home waters of Maine. Along the way we will fall in love with arctic streams, glacial rivers flowing green with flour, alpine brooks tumbling out of melting snow, and little estuaries wh...

It has been said that poetry can be a marker of where a poet has been, or a way for a poet to point to places where we, the reader, can go. Both types of poems appear here. Not corralled to any one poetic style, the heart-mind-river that forms this flowing collection has been shaped by the author's diverse cross-cultural experiences, spiritual tutelage with a New Mexican wisewoman and wilderness guide, and fueled by such practices as meditatio...

Matthew Fox elegantly offers a contemplative practice that transforms the names of God to the experience of God." -Deepak Chopra MD What do we mean by "God" in today's world? Do we even need "God" anymore?How many names for Divinity are there? Do the names for God change as we mature as individuals, evolve as a species, and face a critical "turning time" in human and planetary history?" Too often, notions of God have been used as a means to co...

In The Bone Pile: Essays on Nature and Culture , author Maximilian Werner uses the vehicles of fly fishing, every day experience, and some of our most sacred rituals to explore the origins and limitations of our behavior and ideas. These essays range from the quasi-mystical to the polemical and from the polemical to the ecological. However different each of these essays may be, together they represent an incisive study of human and nonhuman li...
