In her debut poetry collection The Glacier's Wake, Katy Didden attends to the large-scale tectonics of the natural world as she considers the sources and aftershocks of mortality, longing, and loss. A number of the poems in the collection are monologues in recurring voices--specifically those of a glacier, a sycamore, and a wasp--offering an inventive, prismatic approach to Didden's ambitious subject matter.
