About the Book

A literary hike through Ohio's oldest national park An anthology celebrating the biodiversity and staggering beauty of Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Light Enters the Grove collects 81 poems, each of which reflects its author's unique connection to a living organism found within the park—ranging from white-tailed deer to brown bats and from Japanese honeysuckle to bloodroot. Additionally, each poem is paired with an artistic depiction of the poem's subject that reinforces the rich relationship between artists and the natural world. Editors Charles Malone, Carrie George, and Jason Harris provide a stirring introduction to this emotional journey through the park. Renowned writers featured in the volume include Kari Gunter-Seymour, poet laureate of Ohio, and Deborah Fleming, whose book Resurrection of the Wild won the 2020 PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay. This collection invites readers to look further into their own experiences and memories of the park, to reflect on their relationships to its species, and to recognize the importance of preserving the lives and habitats of our nonhuman neighbors.

Review :
"Where standard field guides end, this one begins with a terrifically diverse chorus that sings and dreams us into a deeper connection with a special place. The way poem lives alongside art to honor other beings makes this marvelous collection nothing short of an ecology of wildness and wonder."--Derek Sheffield, coeditor of Cascadia Field Guide: Art, Ecology, Poetry and poetry editor of Terrain.org "The collection is an emotional 'hike' through our own memories, anxieties, and longings to find something new, or in some cases be something new; how to discover ways to identify ourselves and exist in unpredictable circumstances."--Amy Rosenbluth, cofounder and executive director of Lake Erie Ink a writing space for youth
