Konvèsasyon sa a prezante Devon Walker-Figueroa sou Philomath: Poems, nan konvèsasyon ak jij ki te chwazi maniskri li a, Sally Keith, River House: Poems. An explorer at the edge of the sublime, Devon Walker-Figueroa writes in quiet awe of nature, of memory, and of a beauty that is “merely existence carrying on and carrying on.” In her wanderings, she guides readers toward a kind of witness that doesn’t flinch from the bleak or bizarre: A vineyard engulfed in flames is reclaimed by the fields. A sow smothers its young, then bears more. A neighbor chews locusts in his yard. Philomath is a ruminative catalogue of overgrowth and the places that haunt us. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern, fondatè mak Ecco nan HarperCollins ak Seri Nasyonal Pwezi.
