What Kind of Seed Made You by Rachael Inciarte
$14.99
In What Kind of Seed Made You, Rachael Inciarte writes an elegant and delicate study of roots inching through unfamiliar soil and plants which bear rare and uncertain fruit.
This collection explores thorns and gardens, childhood and secrets, sinkholes and stars, the desert and what it grows—or what grows from it. These poems actively urge us to attempt to understand what we feel and how we grow, and understand that of some things we may never be certain.
Her work intricately reaches to remind us that we are seeded by our experiences and that what blooms yearns to be claimed whether it is beautiful or barbed or both.
These poems cultivate soft strange tendrils that cannot be ignored, that beg to be read again and again.
–Kristian Macaron, poet/writer of Storm, editor of Manzano Mountain Review
The review of the book from the Eric Hoffer Award:
“This book explores the undeniable facets of personal growth and universal understanding by fusing the human experience with the miraculous biological acts nature performs season after season. Its poems remind readers that growth and change are the keys to development and fulfillment. To remind readers of the power simplicity holds, the book incorporates everything from the invisible seismic waves that shake the ground without people even realizing it, to the tangible seeds those dedicated to the earth plant year after year. Part ode to the past and part rally cry of the future, this collection is delicate and intricate much like the life its pages celebrates.”
