Synopsis

THERE IS A FIELD bears witness to many voices, many lives—and the interconnectedness of those lives with one another and with the natural world. Woven in the collection are the author’s personal stories, ghostly memories and reflections on social and environmental concerns. Some of these poems dazzle, some burn. Whether the focus is a trust fall fiasco at summer camp, a landfill on Green Turtle Cay, racial realities of the ’60s, a lonely whale or a bullfrog’s response to urban renewal, these poems will linger past the page. “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,” said Rumi, “there is a field. I’ll meet you there.” In this book, the poet has created such a field.
