Et cetera : What We're Reading: You Are Here

Fans of poetry will enjoy this diverse collection of poetry edited and introduced by Ada Limon titled 'You are Here: Poetry in the Natural World.' This collection is one of five books the director, Kelly Henkle, chose as part of the NEA Big Read 2025 list of books we are showcasing at the library. A few of my favorite poems from this collection were:

'You Belong to the World' by Carrie Fountain

'Nature, Which Cannot Be Driven To' by Diane Suess

'Letters' by Ilya Kaminsky

'There are More Ways to Show Devotion' by Hanif Abdurraqib

'No Ethical Transition Under Late Capitalism' by Torrin A. Greathouse

This collection can be found at the library! Check it out today. Happy reading, friends! ~Heather
