Step inside and discover a poetry collection that feels like opening a window to the whole country at once. Edited by U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón, You Are Here gathers fifty never-before-published poems from some of America’s most vital contemporary voices—Joy Harjo, Diane Seuss, Jericho Brown, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, and more—each offering an intimate portrait of their own corner of the natural world.
This isn’t your grandmother’s nature poetry. These poems engage with landscapes both wild and urban: a lone tree stubbornly blooming by a bus stop holds as much wonder as a sprawling national park. The result is a beautifully diverse chorus of voices that challenges what we think we know about our relationship to the earth beneath our feet.
Published in association with the Library of Congress, this collection arrives at a moment when both our poetic and planetary landscapes are shifting in profound ways. As Margaret Renkl writes in the New York Times, “Whoever you are, you will find yourself and your own world in the expansiveness of this collection.”
Joyful and urgent, wondrous and provocative, You Are Here invites you to experience poetry and nature anew—perfect for lingering over with a cup of tea while the sea air drifts through the window.
Whoever you are, you will find yourself and your own world in the expansiveness of this collection.
A stunning collection that redefines nature poetry for our time.
An essential anthology that speaks to our moment with both urgency and grace.
A vital collection that expands our understanding of what nature poetry can be.
Limón has curated a collection that feels both timely and timeless, speaking to our fractured relationship with the natural world.
