Publisher's Synopsis
Martha Silano's award-winning new collection is a passionate cry on behalf of the Earth and all who dwell upon it. Very few poets have dared to show us, so clearly, the edge of peril to which we have brought our only home, offering stern and irrefutable warnings regarding our future upon it. Yet even with all that seriousness, the poems are also both hypnotic and lyrical hymns of praise for the Earth's wonders and glories.
