the under story by Broderick Eaton – NWVS #179
$17.99
“In language as regal as the forests and woodlands she explores, Eaton’s poems offer thought-provoking contemplations on personal loss, love and purpose framed by keen observations of the natural world.”
–Ellen Waterston, author of Hotel Domilocos: Poems
“This is a stunning collection that would leave Mary Oliver breathless. The celebration of the natural order is magnified by powerful images and compelling narratives. The poet moves the reader to a greater acceptance of death and loss through her discovery of birth and rebirth in the shifting gifts from sky, tree, bird and earth. Throughout, her attention to sound and touch enables strong visual passages to ring out with a clear bell and a deft sense of presence. The contemplative bent of this work is lightened by the poet’s humor, as in “this is a pilfered poem.” Broderick Eaton embraces the many gifts of nature in startlingly restorative language, guiding us with a sincerely humble lead. So much to savor!”
–Carol Barrett, Ph.D.,author of Pansies and Reading Wind
