Heritage & Other Pseudonyms

by Lorrie Ness

Overview

In her latest collection, Lorrie Ness paints an intricate, aching portrait of landscape and inheritance. Here, the wonders and cruelties of family and the natural world braid together, not quite healing but rather reshaping one another, the way an American elm crumbles so that "[e]very summer, woodpeckers / fledge from its core." When home is both "a grave and a nebula," Ness reminds us how to hold the stories of where we come from with exquisite and unwavering attention.- Empty House Press
