Synopsis

House in Need of Mooring pulls back the curtain on our natural surroundings and reminds the reader just what is at stake if we destroy our home. To surrender to this book is to face that naked certainty and be moved to action and recognition, and inside its covers, one need only to "grab the mane, straddle the beast & ride." (Keith Flynn); Bernardin is a master of the startling, transformative image. House in Need of Mooring, "a primeval festival of gathering," grows from a life interwoven with nature, its wisdom earned from the poet's unflinching observations. (Ashley Mace Havird); These poems by Libby Bernardin are keenly sensitive to nature. They also embody the losses, fears, sorrows, loves, and simple pleasures of life lived deeply-a quiet mind seeing, and yes, reflecting, but never looking away from what has gone so wrong and so right in these times. (Jim Peterson)
