“Larkin’s way of pulling language up by the roots –
literally, as we have frequently to go back to the root meanings of
words to understand his unorthodox grammar – does not make it
easy for the reader, but he is a rewarding and deeply original
poet.” —Isobel Armstrong “No poet has ever given so much to
trees – his thought, his attention, his invention – which lets
him then, in turn, give these trees to us, and in ways that
highlight the complexities of their architectures and their
contexts, their interactions with the myriad communities in which
they participate. This new collection branches out toward grasses,
seeds, electricity … all propelled by a wonderful tanglework of
sound that reflects the environmental networks in which trees play
such a crucial role. This book is a sheer gift – of trees and to
trees, and above all, to readers who love them.” —Cole Swensen
