Alchemy and Miracles: Nature Woven Into Words

By Cassandra Arnold

What does the natural world mean to us - and what are we losing?

In Alchemy and Miracles: Nature Woven Into Words, 83 poets from across the globe answer that question in their own voices. From the rainforests of Alaska to the coastlines of Portugal, from the mountains of West Virginia to the plains of Scotland, these poems celebrate the beauty, complexity, and fragility of the natural world - with humour, grief, wonder, and joy.

This is nature poetry with real range. Contributors include Pushcart Prize nominees, a Santa Cruz poet laureate, a Fulbright and PEN USA award winner, and poets published in the New York Times and Harvard Press - alongside emerging voices writing their first published poems. What unites them is a shared love of the natural world and an urgency to put it into words.

Wonderfully readable and richly diverse, Alchemy and Miracles is the anthology for everyone who finds meaning in the more-than-human world - and for anyone who believes poetry can help us see it more clearly.

A perfect gift for the nature lover, the poetry reader, or anyone who steps outside and pays attention.
