Description
What charms us most in this anthology is the song of all the voices together: the sense of a group of poets who unreservedly love the world and sing its praise through exultation and lament. There is such care and attention here, not only in described events, but in detail and naming, in synchronicity, emotion, the evocation of ritual within the ordinary. In all their diversity, here is a oneness of celebration in which we can join.

The test of myths and metaphors is not whether they are 'true; but how they relate to things around us. Those here act as a lens through which eight writers refreshingly different in voice and personality come to see their landscapes in detail, with love and concern.
Philip Gross
There has perhaps never been a better time for this book to be coming into print. Again and again we are brought back to the land, to the creatures, to the trees, to the things we can't live without. These varied and wide-ranging poems revel in magic that comes from close observation as well as a deep understanding of the earth's intelligence.
