Description

The Blue Rock Collection by Forrest Gander explores the intricate relationships between humans and the world around us. Drawing inspiration from his background in geology, Gander crafts poems that reflect the unique characteristics of rocks, often weaving these natural forms into the fabric of human experience. In this collection, the poet examines themes as diverse as love, fatherhood, empire, and the tension between scientific rationalism and poetic imagination. Through a range of forms and styles, Gander reveals the emotional terrain beneath our relationships with others and with the world we inhabit. With an eye to the natural world's enduring presence in our lives, The Blue Rock Collection offers a nuanced exploration of what it means to stand on common ground - literally and figuratively.
