| book description |

Pulitzer Prize winner Forrest Gander is widely celebrated as a love poet, a meditative poet, and a poet of ecological awareness. He has always been a writer drawn to cross-cultural encounter, as active in translation as any poet of his generation. This collection of essays on his work brings together an international range of poets, novelists, critics, and translators, including Charles Altieri, Stephanie Burt, Julia Fiedorczuk, Jorie Graham, and Jeanette Winterson. The collection features interviews as well as essays of different kinds—reviews, appreciations, and interpretations—and they address Gander’s poetry, fiction, and translations. They illuminate major concerns at the heart of all his work: eros, companionship, loss, renewal, an openness to the life all around us, and a rapt attention to the natural world.
