The poetry of Earthwork is centered around, sprung from, and located in the landscape of mothering during the increasingly mapless territory of climate change and the pandemic.

It's a place where hope finds purchase."-Alyssa Chase, writer and editor Throughout this extraordinary collection, Berger's lyrical, meditative voice buoys readers through the wild wrack lines of our existence, making us ask, Dear world, where would I be without you? -Brittney Corrigan, author of Daughters and BreakingHinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
