How to Fly (In Ten Thousand Easy Lessons)

In her second poetry collection, Barbara Kingsolver invites readers to explore the depths of human intimacy and the mysteries of nature through beautifully crafted, emotionally rich poems. Turning her gaze from the noise of modern life, she reflects on the everyday and the metaphysical, tackling themes such as hope, relationships, and the complexities of life and death. The collection closes with vivid celebrations of the natural world, illustrating the continuous journey of belonging to an untamed existence. This engaging work highlights the transcendence found in both ordinary moments and profound reflections.
