Produktinformationen "Blue Flax & Yellow Mustard Flower"
"A rich catalog of the Anthropocene, including history, research, and initiative."—Ellen Bass, author of In Indigo Essential poems devoted to the power of language to pull us closer to Nature and each other. In her sixth poetry collection, award-winning writer Alison Hawthorne Deming extends her exploration of the meanings of nature into the tensions of our political and ecological moment. Whether traveling to a biological field station in the Canadian Maritimes, ruins of the Temple at Delphi, community gardens in Havana, the Sonoran Desert’s spring bloom, or eruptions of violence in America, she finds in art healing reciprocities between beauty and devastation. The title refers to crops that grow on farmland in North Dakota where our subterranean nuclear missiles await deployment in their silos. The image epitomizes the tensions that underlie our ordinary days. And yet in these poems she finds "light having an edge over darkness." Poet and naturalist, celebrant and elegist, Deming’s poems pay homage to "every organism’s joy to thrive," every poem an act of defiance against human cruelty.
