Curated in collaboration with ONE ART | These three books share a rare quality — they ask us to stop and look more carefully at the life already in front of us. Whether the lens is the body, grief, or the quiet of an ordinary afternoon, Hayden Saunier, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer, and James Crews each find within the ordinary an inexhaustible source of wonder. Taken together, they offer a kind of practice: a way of opening to the world rather than moving through it untouched. Find this bundle only at thepoetryshop.com.
How to Wear This Body by Hayden Saunier | "The interconnectedness of everything on earth, how we belong to it all, how permeable boundaries are between us and the natural world, how things sing and what they sing of are rendered with aching acuity." - Amy Gerstler
The Unfolding by Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer | Trommer startles us with the wonder, beauty, and sacred connection that blossoms out of living wholeheartedly. Here, the poet wades heart-deep in the broken world and finds in the rubble these honest, surprising invitations to praise.
Breathing Room: Poems of Rest and Retreat by James Crews | In James Crews' new collection, the poet asks us to pause and breathe, to search for kindness and gratitude in the small moments of everyday life. He is the editor of bestselling anthologies: The Path to Kindness: Poems of Connection and Joy and How to Love the World: Poems of Gratitude and Hope, which has over 100,000 copies in print.
