loppear reviewed Soil and Spirit by Scott Chaskey
odd to relate the least to the author's experiences and yet connect
4 stars
Connection to the garden, to earth, to rock, a broad set of essays entangling poetry, place, transplanted species, indigenous women's voices, community agriculture, global dialog. Only a few of the author's own poem fragments moved me, but his selection of literature and context and experience works to shape a dependent view of the world.
