Poems. "Winner of the 2020 Red Mountain Discovery Award" --cover page [1].
Summary:
"Roosting crows trace "a memory of abundance." Stars speak and then fall silent. A coyote will not be reduced to a prop. Saints are tested, composers come unstrung, and trees transform into totems. The interplay of art and nature, of culture and climate, lies at the heart of this award-winning collection. Tessa Kale deftly ranges from Hudson River scenes past and present to Neolithic Europe, from nineteenth-century Hamburg brothels to 1970s performance art, and from inside a beehive to the farthest celestial reaches, in poems that capture the wonder and fragility of worlds without and within, and the sheer "joy of flying sideways."" --Amazon.
