Find love, loss, and all manner of plant and beast in Clara Bush Vadala's debut collection of poems, Prairie Smoke: Poems from the Grasslands. The poems in this book whisper of longing, of hope, and of a fragile world which still blooms with the beauty of perseverance. Follow Vadala as she searches for "home" in the tallgrass prairies of the north, in the language of landscape the native tongue of Texas, and the wildness of North America's own megafauna, the moose. Even as these poems explore the ethereal quality of animals, from toads to moose, roadside skunk to elusive black bear, the human presence is ever felt and closely examined. "Longing" invites the reader to feel the need for companionship even in the tranquility of nature, "Three Things" imparts the necessity of keeping to ourselves, even as we long to explore the world around us. Open Prairie Smoke: Poems from the Grasslands to discover the natural history of the prairie, as told by the creatures within.

Winner of the 2021 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award! Winner of the Stephan G. Stephansson Award for Poetry Winner of a 2021 High Plains Book Award for First Book! Finalist for the 2020 City of Calgary W.O. Mitchell Book Prize! A 2020 CBC Poetry Book of the Year! Finalist for a 2021 High Plains Book Award for Poetry Bertrand Bickersteth's debut poetry collection explores what it means to be black and Albertan through a variety of prisms: historical, biographical, and essentially, geographical. The Response of Weeds offers a much-needed window on often overlooked contributions to the province's character and provides personal perspectives on the question of black identity on the prairies. Through these rousing and evocative poems, Bickersteth uses language to call up the contours of the land itself, land that is at once mesmerizing as it is dismissively effacing. Such is black identity here on this paradoxical land, too.

Prairies of Possibilities is a mid-career survey of the poetic output of a highly versatile writer whose work has been published in more than a dozen countries in four languages. In addition to poetry he has written histories, children's stories and memoirs. He has received local, national, and international awards and recognition for his work, the Robert Hayden Poetry Fellowship among them. Praise for his poetry has come from, among others, William Stafford, one of America's premier poets of the twentieth century, and fellow Kansan. "I prize your book (Whispers Shouting Glory); it reaches out for the elements of our lives and does so in a context I know and cherish myself."--"Bill" Herrmann's poetry gives an inside view of one who has overcome serious obstacles that have defeated many others. These include the social isolation of a rural farm, the challenges of dyslexia and ADD, and a traumatic childhood. Despite all this, his love for God's world of nature and the Divine shines through these poems in all their glorious beauty. He interweaves the natural world with profound mystical visions. This is his ninth published collection of poems.

James Ransom presents readers with poems covering an astonishing diversity of subjects. There are iconic echoes in some of them-Auden, Eliot and Shakespeare, as well as John Crowe Ransom and Christian Wiman-but comprehending the poems is never dependent on the reader's scholarship. These poems are plain-spoken and heartfelt. The subjects include observations of nature-prairie landscapes of Kansas (title poem) as well as the crags and forests of Scotland. You will be taken to an emergency room and surgery; you will also read about the arson of a church, even the demise of a fish. There are lessons from history and ironic observations about poetry itself. A sense of humor is found in unexpected places. Ransom reflects on childhood and maturity, and on his love and admiration for family members with challenges to meet. He is not afraid to confront questions of religion and faith in unorthodox ways. Political themes are not taboo here, but neither do they dominate. For a clash of cultures, read "Interview From Kotzebue." Or try "Darfur." Unlike the tradition of most books of poetry, Ransom includes photos and paintings. He believes that we live immersed in a culture of image and motion, which can be used to add another dimension to some poems. In that sense, this book is an experiment. If you have been confused, bored or disappointed by modern poetry, this book may help you re-engage.
