Reviews
--BOOKLIST
"A warm, wise collection of poems focused on living in harmony with self, animals, and Earth."
--MS. MAGAZINE
"In an age as acrimonious as ours, Linda Hogan's new poetry collection, A History of Kindness, sounds especially poignant."
--THE WASHINGTON POST
"There's something calm and steadying about Hogan's poetry...her writing is accessible and complex all at once."
--BOOK RIOT
"There is no one like Linda Hogan. I read her poetry to both calm and ignite my heart. A History of Kindness is a series of oracles rising from the page born out of a life of listening, feeling, responding."
--TERRY TEMPEST WILLIAMS, author of Erosion
"Linda Hogan is one of the most important environmental writers of our time. In A History of Kindness, she weaves themes of the body, family, ecology, and animals into a spiral that traverses time and space. In this troubled and dark world, I am grateful for the wisdom, light, and love found in these poems."
--CRAIG SANTOS PEREZ, author of Habitat Threshold

--ANA CASTILLO, author of Black Dove
"In this new collection, Linda Hogan weaves together memory, the Milky Way, buffalo and rivers with the wonder and wisdom of an ancient soul, and a passionate heart. We are blessed, once again, by her words."
