Descriere magazin:
nWINNER OF THE 2021 BLUE LIGHT BOOK AWARD. THIS IS THE BOOK I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. For years. Emilie Lygren writes essential, elegant poems that help us live our lives and apprehend with deepest gratitude all the gifts surrounding us.-Naomi Shihab Nye This voice is a wild spirit disguised as human, schooling in us advantages of feral thought, wilderness virtues, the intuitive aptitude that lives within us. Read these poems and feel it awaken in you, in a realm where bees speak the names of next year\'s seeds, and the place you shine is inside. Again and again, you will be taken to the peak, to see why you are here.-Kim Stafford, author of Singer Come from Afar (Red Hen Press, 2021) In What You Were Born For, Emilie Lygren\'s poems ask us to look closely then shift our perception wider -- from termites flying out of a tree stump to one\'s own birth, from tools to our inevitable mortality, from sea glass to islands engulfed by sea level rise. As the poems bring us into communion with each other and with the natural world, they also interrogate the constructed world of patriarchal power, perfectionism, and profit. With wonder and play, the poems call us into the wildness of our bodies and call our bodies into the earth to be reborn as seeds. As we reckon with racial violence and global pandemic, these poems offer us a window into our own renewal. -Tehmina Khan, poet and teacher, City College of San Francisco Emilie Lygren is a writer, outdoor educator, and facilitator who believes that poetry can change the world.
