Waterborne eBook

A stirring, brilliantly crafted collection, Linda Gregerson''s third volume of poetry examines mortality in all its beauty and horror. Fluently rendered in Gregerson''s distinctive three-line stanzas, these poems explore subjects from autism to genealogy to ecology. Their occasions are diverse -- a barn fire, a wounded deer, a child''s determined struggle with a bicycle -- but their instinct is always to wrest from the impure world a vernacular of praise.
