Her second collection broadens these investigations in poems that examine the shape-shifting quality of memory, as seen in folktales that have traveled across oceans and through centuries, and in how we form recollections of our own lives. An opening sequence presents contemporary ghost stories: men who gather at dawn in the gas station parking lots of small towns; the mountain lion that paces the edge of a receding tree line. A middle section draws connections between Appalachia and Latin America, places that share qualities of biological and cultural richness--places that are threatened by modernization. A final sequence retells the stories of earlier poems, posing questions about how we construct our landscapes and frame our views.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50345648816401,"sku":"CIN0143126571G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999523967249,"sku":"NIN9780143126577","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0143126571.jpg?v=1751101316"},{"product_id":"literary-field-guide-to-southern-appalachia-book-rose-mclarney-9780820356242","title":"A Literary Field Guide to Southern Appalachia","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50809170100497,"sku":"CIN0820356247G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52153424412945,"sku":"CIN0820356247VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0820356247.jpg?v=1750818749"},{"product_id":"literary-field-guide-to-southern-appalachia-book-rose-mclarney-9780820374505","title":"A Literary Field Guide to Southern Appalachia","description":"Getting acquainted with local flora and fauna is the perfect way to begin to understand the wonder of nature. The natural environment of Southern Appalachia, with habitats that span the Blue Ridge to the Cumberland Plateau, is one of the most biodiverse on earth. A Literary Field Guide to Southern Appalachia—a hybrid literary and natural history anthology—showcases sixty of the many species indigenous to the region.  Ecologically, culturally, and artistically, Southern Appalachia is rich in paradox and stereotype-defying complexity. Its species range from the iconic and inveterate—such as the speckled trout, pileated woodpecker, copperhead, and black bear—to the elusive and endangered—such as the American chestnut, Carolina gorge moss, chucky madtom, and lampshade spider. The anthology brings together art and science to help the reader experience this immense ecological wealth.  Stunning images by seven Southern Appalachian artists and conversationally written natural history information complement contemporary poems from writers such as Ellen Bryant Voigt, Wendell Berry, Janisse Ray, Sean Hill, Rebecca Gayle Howell, Deborah A. Miranda, Ron Rash, and Mary Oliver. Their insights illuminate the wonders of the mountain South, fostering intimate connections. The guide is an invitation to get to know Appalachia in the broadest, most poetic sense.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51598830272785,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51598830534929,"sku":"NIN9780820374505","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0820374504.jpg?v=1750703777"},{"product_id":"forage-book-rose-mclarney-9780143133193","title":"Forage","description":"\u003cb\u003eWinner of Weatherford Award for Best Poetry Book about Appalachia\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A poet acclaimed for \"uncompromising, honest poems that sound like no one else\" (\u003ci\u003eThe Rumpus\u003c\/i\u003e) now offers considerations of the natural world and humans' place within it in ecopoetry of both ambitious reach and elegant refinement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Rose McLarney has won attention as a poet of impressive insight, craft, and a \"constantly questioning and enlarging vision\" (Andrew Hudgins).

These intricately sequenced poems take up everything from animals' symbolic roles in art and as indicators of ecological change to how water can represent a large, troubled system or the exceptions of smaller, purer tributaries. At the confluence of these poems is a social commentary that goes beyond lamenting environmental degradation and disaster to record--and augment--the beauty of the world in which we live.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51694533902609,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51694535115025,"sku":"CIN0143133195G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53031229096209,"sku":"NIN9780143133193","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53103695102225,"sku":"CIN0143133195VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0143133195.jpg?v=1751195550"},{"product_id":"rubble-masonry-book-rose-mclarney-9780807185896","title":"Rubble Masonry","description":"Rubble Masonry is a collection of lyric essays that takes its title from the practice of stone masons who, rather than using materials cut to ideal measurements, work with found rocks' natural shapes.
