Lorraine Anderson's anthology <i>Sisters of the Earth</i> is just the remedy. In it, Anderson gathers writing on nature from a range of authors, among them the relatively familiar Sally Carrighar, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Ann Zwinger, Rachel Carson, and Ursula Le Guin and younger contemporaries like Pat Mora, Terry Tempest Williams, Luci Tapahonso, and Joy Harjo. Anderson showcases essays, fiction, and poetry in roughly equal measure, and her intelligent notes and introduction add much to this generous--and long overdue, and most welcome--collection. 201844 1991 Sisters of the Earth: Women's Prose and Poetry About Nature total:32|5:14|4:13|3:5| 32 137 48 3 0 0 false false Thu Jan 22 16:38:51 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 22 16:40:24 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Tue Dec 25 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Jul 17 07:43:10 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 08:33:28 -0700 2009 It is a very centering book.]]> 5 0 false false Wed Feb 20 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 20 08:54:39 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 20 08:54:39 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Nov 15 21:07:40 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 15 21:07:40 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Oct 16 14:01:31 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 14:01:31 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Sep 25 13:28:53 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 25 13:28:53 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Sep 09 21:47:07 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 21:47:07 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Aug 01 16:36:27 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 01 16:36:27 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jun 21 11:44:27 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 21 11:44:27 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue May 19 09:38:29 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 09:38:29 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue May 05 14:16:50 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 14:16:50 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu Apr 30 11:30:12 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 30 11:30:12 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Apr 28 15:20:21 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 28 15:20:26 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Apr 28 13:01:20 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 28 13:01:20 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Apr 19 23:26:18 -0700 2009 Sun Apr 19 23:26:18 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Mar 31 13:37:04 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 31 13:37:04 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Feb 04 05:56:34 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 04 05:56:34 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sat Nov 15 06:48:47 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 15 06:49:10 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Nov 10 09:43:32 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 11 17:05:43 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Oct 14 06:16:01 -0700 2008 Sun Oct 19 19:26:26 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=208531
