Lyrical, vigorous, inventive, Dixon’s fifth poetry collection gestures towards D.H. Lawrence’s iconic Birds, Beasts and Flowers. Dixon’s gaze takes in Syrian roses, an abundance of apricots in Santa Fe, the memory of a dancing friend; bats, bees, tortoises, snakes, the generous body of a whale. Threaded throughout is the beautiful complexity and vulnerability of the planet, and the joy and difficulty of making art, as each poem becomes its own vivid testament to the natural world.
