Advance praise for While the Whippoorwill CalledWhile the Whippoorwill Called is a sensual delight rooted in laurel thicket and balsam ridge, in the amber glow of home left and returned to, a voice sometimes alone in the mountains nonetheless singing free. Ann Shurgin’s debut poetry collection is also a heart tugger, wishing for love once tasted then flowing past. Both poet and photographer, Shurgin centers us in her lens of wishing and independence, on the Tennessee/Carolina border, knowing that “a stone from Appalachia / is lost without the hollows / and the whippoorwills.” Wrap yourself in evanescent memory and life’s great unfurling, in the quiet woods of what was and is yet to be. —Linda Parsons, author of Candescent and This Shaky EarthIn While the Whippoorwill Called, Ann Shurgin creates a symphony of longing for more than the inevitability of dying. Love settles a stillness seemingly from heaven.
