This nourishing anthology of gorgeous poems reshapes how we think about water. How one poet recalls the Boxing Day Tsunami, to another’s ideas on the American River, to the myriad ways that water sustains us, the poets gathered here invite us to understand and reimagine how miraculous water truly is. This stellar book is for everyone, everywhere.
—Lee Herrick – California Poet Laureate and author of In Praise of Late Wonder: New and Selected Poems (2024)
