PRAISE:
With this book I can see it: Poetry’s destiny is here realized in the visceral apprehension of light and water, sensation and vital being. It takes these poems to break open my fossil solitudes and bring me living into the realm of wild being…by the ‘anchor of abandon.’ Human feeling is given structure, deftly hewn, and inevitable loss given ritual, so fragments may heal.
–Kim Stafford, author of As the Sky Begins to Change
This collection of poems moved me more than any I have read. Immersed in its simple and profound lines, I begin to understand at a deep level many things at once: what it is like to be a sea anemone, the vast power of the ocean, and the sorrow and love that penetrate our lives. These poems will break open not only the wild world of the anemone, but the equally unfathomable human heart. I am a better human being, having read this book.
–Susan Marsh, poet and author of This Earth Has Been Too Generous and Passings
