Winner of the 2020 Blue Lynx Prize for PoetryIn The Present State
of the Garden, both childhood and the natural world are elegized as
the speaker works through layers of loss: the dissolution of a
marriage and a world on the brink of ecological collapse. She
attempts to patch together some kind of new Eden in these
aftermaths and to make a home and family from the remnants -
memories from girlhood, a stray aunt and a niece, and what's left
of her small, once lush garden after the punishing storms of
summer. The Present State of the Garden is a clear-eyed,
open-hearted poetic memoir.
