Bennett, a popular reader and author of more than 30 successful books, here uses poetry to explore the deep ecological bonds between ourselves and the natural world.

Lyrical, at times mystical, Bennett's themes cover the human spectrum--from the mystery of life and death, to compassion for our enemies, to ruthlessness towards those we love.

Bennett dares to entertain lofty as well as ignoble themes, ones that have been around for as long as poetry, as long as human yearning, summoning us back to our own humanness.
