Publisher Marketing: Winner of the 2021 Richard Snyder Memorial Publication Prize, selected by Maggie Anderson.This collection of lyric poems takes us to landscapes in America, Europe, Central and South America, and other places to tell how personal experience finds meaning in the universal. We find characters from history such as Virginia Dare, William Bradford, and the wife of John Ruskin and artists such as Van Gogh. Folk tales reveal universalities as such as love, loss, and wonder. The images of these finely-crafted poems will stay with the reader long after he or she has finished the book.
