Dallas Crow's second poetry chapbook, Troutwatching, is a wide-ranging collection that explores life with sons, animals, and art. There are poems set in Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, the Mountain West, the Midwest, and Appalachia. There are poems in response to pizza, pumpkins, paintings, photographs, and other poets, while others respond to front-page current events both horrific and awe-inspiring. These are poems in love with language and absurdity, travel and trout. In the end, this is a collection of love songs with an eye on mortality.
