These vivid, tender poems-- of earth and animal, pandemic and family, rage, longing, and sea-deep love-- urge us to remember and fight for our vital interconnectedness. \" How could I be any way but staggered?\" writes Pierce of the wild world, before acknowledging the paradox of loving the earth as it's dying: \" What I want is to know about endings and still love each wingbeat, each shade \/ of the boundless, darkening sky.\" Dear Beast is a love letter to our planet and its creatures, and a song of empathy for the beastly human animals that we are.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCatherine Pierce is the author of the poetry collections Danger Days, The Tornado Is the World, The Girls of Peculiar, and Famous Last Words, as well as the memoir Foxes for Everybody.
