Ghost Skin

By Diane Bliss

In Ghost Skin, the poet Diane Bliss comes at nature with an innate curiosity, whether appreciating a chipmunk's survival trick with the shed skin of a snake, recalling a child artist's simple question about the color of rain, or speculating about a porcupine's longings in the face of winter and predators. As a birder observing ubiquitous crows, a struggling sandpiper, or a caracara far north of its southern home, she gives readers a glimpse of the bird world as well as of the intriguing character of birders themselves. Immersing the reader in her observations and experiences within the setting of nature, she reveals our complicated relationship, as humans, with the natural world and each other.
