"Laura Walker's atlas is sung and wrung out of a deep listening to
every word, and this is rare. The poems are full of dirt, weeds and
butternut squash, but even if the place from which (not of which)
Walker writes were full of skyscrapers or stripmalls, her
connection to her language and her materials would be as
particular, as true. Such singularity of connection (actual!) opens
the field of meaning and experience for the reader coming into it,
to gather and move, to suffer in spells and flower 'in the greening
and the sound.'"--Lisa Fishman, author of "The Happiness
Experiment"
Praise for previous work:
"There is an intimate lilt, an indelible charm, a bygone
narrator...in Laura Walker's elegant collection. Her tangibility of
voice seems to know a listener. Conversation dares with an undone
presence. In other words, you can put your feet up. You can find
shade."--Laynie Browne, "Poetry Project Newsletter"
