As a spellbound reader, I have followed the basket-weavers' guidance: \"Over north and under east\/over south and under west\/repeat\" (from Basketry).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKarin Temple, author of Child of War, So Great a Cloud of Witnesses, and Chalice of Tears\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Dott's poems offer both visionary and humane insights. They draw us into a world where the natural world is matched with the inner landscape of self-awareness. His poems are filled with intelligent and artistic values. They will lead you into introspection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Bogue, editor, Turtle Island Quarterly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this masterful narrative poem cycle, James Dott devotes his large gift to reimagining the bleak and grueling settlement of Plymouth Harbor more than four centuries ago, and one orphaned woman's unwanted escape from it. Her remarkable story of hard loss and discovered love carries from gentle Devon to the mountains of Massachusetts, in sharp images and lyrics as lovely as \"through the shifting slur of leaves, \/a thrush's song\" and \"a sound\/smaller than shrew speech\". If the story is essentially human, one of immigrant and indigene, it is told just as much through the sensibilities, voices, and actions of the ocean, raven, loon, and fire. The American colonial experience will never be quite the same for me after reading Another Shore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Michael Pyle, author of Evolution of the Genus Iris and Chinook \u0026amp; Chanterelle\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.13 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 28, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47942701187293,"sku":"9781949229967","price":22.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/iVo3nrQW489781949229967.webp?v=1779259924","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/another-shore-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
