Reviews
Englewood Review of Books, A Most Anticipated Book of the Year "Berry conveys so perfectly the overlapping emotions of love and grief that, at times, I read through tears . . . These poems offer gifts of vision, of knowing that there is another way to live now on this Earth: a way that honors love, the land, and all beings." --Barbara J. King, NPR "The pieces have a timeless quality . . . Berry's writing has the remarkable quality of being both traditional and revolutionary . . . This is a collection from the heart of a poet whose philosophy of the interconnectedness of human life to nature remains as steadfast as the deeply rooted trees and river carving the land he writes about." --Sara Lynn Eastler, Southern Review of Books "Another stunning contribution to the poetry canon from one of America's most beloved writers." --Englewood Review of Books
