Produktbeschreibung
In Mountains of the Moon, her fifth collection, Irene Blair Honeycutt takes readers on a journey from creeks of childhood through rivers and inlets all the way to the Red Sea and back again. The natural world has always been Honeycutt's closest companion and theme, never more so than in these poems--so many of them written during the forced exile of the pandemic--through which we learn the power of living within the paradox of joy and sorrow. This lyric, elegiac collection demonstrates the power of evolution and reveals a storehouse of treasures left by the dead for the living. In rich and surprising language, Honeycutt shows us how to transmute grief into a conscious letting go. How to embody forgiveness, accept the unacceptable. How, in a world that sometimes seems to lack it, to find hope.
