Seasonal Works With Letters On Fire

"Activism pervades Brenda Hillman’s work, nowhere more than in this collection — the fourth and final installment in her series of elemental meditations (previous books have treated air, water and earth). Here, she gathers not only jumpy, experimental lyrics but also scraps of occasional prose and images — anything that will help her make the case that the world is a mess and it’s up to us to fix it."
