Anne Coray, a lifelong Alaskan, is keenly aware of climate change. The 24 sonnets of Late Fall Bucolics explore global warming and examine the aftermath of fire through Greek myth as well as the history of match making, with its devastating effects on factory workers. With nods to DaVinci and Matisse, she weaves in themes of art with her portrayals of humans painting (or remaking) our earthly landscape. Many of these poems were not only inspired by poets such as Blake, Neruda, and Plath, but also pay homage to today's young activists, such as Greta Thunberg.
"...the consistent flashes of play here, the continual linguistic energy, and most centrally the poet's enduring gaze-even at her own culpability-create a voice urgent and desirous, perhaps even hopeful, that something remains of place."
-Gaylord Brewer, author of Worship the Pig
"Late Fall Bucolics thrums with art, fire, warmth, the embers of autumn-upon-winter in the hearth and landscape-and how to grapple with our place in the Anthropocene."
-Elizabeth Bradfield, author of Toward Antarctica
