Description

Quickening Fields by Pattiann Rogers explores the natural world with striking accuracy and emotional impact. This collection gathers fifty-three poems that focus on the lives of various creatures, from insects to animals, and their unceasing zeal to exist. The poems are primarily lyrical and celebratory in tone, yet they also acknowledge the terror, suffering, and unpredictability of life. Rogers' vision of the earth immersed in a dynamic cosmic milieu is revealed through her poetry, which often addresses celestial phenomena and their effects on the human spirit. Through her work, Pattiann Rogers presents a powerful and nuanced portrayal of the natural world, one that is both beautiful and thought-provoking.
