I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.

It is a collection of 54 poems, but while the author of each poem is clearly labeled, none of the poems has a individual title. This contributes to the overall feel of a single "collaborative poem." Furthermore, the poems' content - an homage of sorts to the people and geography - lends continuity to the overall work.

A beautiful book. Highly recommended.
