Earth Song: A Nature Poems Experience (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Earth Song was born from a pivotal moment of personal connection with nature, while the world seemed burning with pandemic fever and climate fire. This anthology of eco-poetry gathered by editor Sara Barkat is infused with vision and care. Holding the collection is like cradling a rare crystal that focuses longing, love, tenderness, hope, and a wish for the world to keep turning... in unutterable ways. Thus: the visceral need for poetry. Words that sing more than speak. Images that invite more than opine.

Arranged to mirror the experience of an orchestral piecewith repeating refrains of Teasdale and Hopkins, Earth Song unfolds its lyric moments through a wide range of voices. Historic. Modern-day. Cross-cultural. Globalwith many poems in beautiful translation. The collection includes both emerging poets and greats like Neruda, Berry, Hirshfield, Darwish, Dickinson, McKay and Merwin.

Leaving off anger, which is the single emotion that many people have come to associate with environmental concern, this collection puts forth a vision more nuanced, more poignant, and not easily brushed aside. Like an irresistible piece of music, it draws readers to embrace their care for the worldstarting so simply: celebrating life moment-by-small-moment.
