In the searing poems of his new collection, Twice Alive, the
Pulitzer Prize-winner Forrest Gander addresses the exigencies of
our historical moment and the intimacies, personal and
environmental, that bind us to others and to the world. Drawing
from his training in geology and his immersion in Sangam literary
traditions, Gander invests these poems with an emotional intensity
that illuminates our deep-tangled interrelations. While conducting
fieldwork with a celebrated mycologist, Gander links human intimacy
with the transformative collaborations between species that compose
lichens. Throughout Twice Alive, Gander addresses personal and
ecological trauma-several poems focus on the devastation wrought by
wildfires in California where he lives-but his tone is
overwhelmingly celebratory. Twice Alive is a book charged with
exultation and tenderness.
