University of New Mexico Press (Verlag)
978-0-8263-6597-2 (ISBN)
This haunting collection merges spirit and nature in a voice both elegiac and celebratory. Kotchian invites readers to explore our deep connection to the natural world, one increasingly at risk even as it continues to surprise and inspire. From meditations on the dangers of global warming to supporting a friend with cancer, from grieving the loss of her own mother to celebrating nature from New Mexico to a wild Scottish island, Kotchian helps readers catalog the consolations available to us in individual moments, offering us resilience, persistence, and hope.
Sarah Kotchian is also the author of Camino, winner of the New Mexico-Arizona Book Award and the Seven Sisters Book Award.
