WINNER OF THE 2021 Lena Shull Book Award from the NC Poetry Society! Advance praise for VERNACULARFrom landscapes she knows intimately (the cornfields of Iowa, the mountains of Appalachia) and tasks that seem ordinary (tilling fields, baking bread, feeding chickens, casting for fish), Anne Maren-Hogan crafts breath-taking, luminous moments. Awe, grief, anger, tenderness—each adds to a sense of the sacred that Anne finds in quiet scenes, as when an anguished cow reacts to the dying of her calf, her deep cries “like the tolling of church bells,” or when the family gathers after a long day of chores, the setting sun “anointing the twelve of us with fire.”—Catherine Reid, Falling into Place: An Intimate Geography of HomeFamily, community, nature, and the land
