Paperback. Condition: Good. Longlisted for the 2024 National Book Critics Circle Award in PoetryA taut, tender collection of poems woven with sadness and loss dealing with aging, attachments, and the precarity of life.?Dawn Lundy Martin?s poems read like a real-time excavation of what poetry can and can?t do," writes Maggie Nelson.

With rigorously embodied vulnerability and virtuosity, Martin constructs moments of pleasure, humor, and sexiness woven with grief?a tender body to live in.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The color green is at the center of the spectrum. For earlier writers like Emily Dickinson or William Blake, the green world was a space of haunting, irreconcilable, opposites: life and death, human and vegetal, innocence and experience. In these essays, letters, repetitions, and experiments, poet and scholar Gillian Osborne adds a third, contemporary, term: the environment as both vital and ailing. This is nature writing outside of adventure or argument, ecological thinking as a space of shared homemaking: reading, writing, and living in vicinity with others. …
