"A vivid and urgent collection that addresses the contemporary crises-environmental, philosophical, and artistic-that keep us up at night. In this "work of eco-activism," acclaimed poet John Kinsella "worries at-and about-the relationship between art and the endangered world" (Kate Kellaway, Guardian). Insomnia contains poems of self-accusation and protest, meditations on the nature of loss and trauma, and full-throated celebrations of the natural world. Ranging from Jam Tree Gully, Western Australia, to the coast of West Cork, Ireland, and haunted by historical and literary figures from Dante to Emily Brontèˆ, Insomnia may be Kinsella's most various and powerful collection to date"-- Provided by publisher.
