She raises her newborn son in rural Vermont; in a California desert she thinks of the life she left behind in the Midwest; she moves to an island in Maine to work at an old motel. These moments capture, viscerally and intimately, the sense of the gothic in rural America--dark, damp dirt on one's hands, a river that wends its way through fog, the decay of wet leaves on a forest floor, a desert over which vultures circle. A meditation on the horror and resplendence of nature, \u003ci\u003eField of Vision\u003c\/i\u003e invokes the ancient history that weaves into each of our individual histories--the earth, the animals, the fossils, the primordial echoes that shape us all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45143454187543,"sku":"9780143139393","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0004\/6497\/7956\/files\/Draw_book_8be68a38-899f-400d-babf-e5810150c4c9.png?v=1778962213","url":"https:\/\/open-books-a-poem-emporium.myshopify.com\/products\/horvath-stephanie-field-of-vpb","provider":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
