To Anita Endrezze, Crystal Good, Dunya Mikhail, Frances Hatfield, Jane Downs, Leah Shelleda, and Naomi Ruth Lowinsky, I would like to express my sincere gratitude, for allowing Fisher King Press to publish poets of such venerated caliber. It is my hope that your mighty voices encompass the entire world and your messages reach and touch the hearts of humanity as a whole. It is my hope that your most worthy offerings are genuinely received and deeply understood.\u00a0&#8212; Mel Mathews, Publisher, Fisher King Press<\/p>\n<p>Seven lyrical women poets, each accompanied by a study of their work, navigate our contemporary world. They travel to the depths of the psyche, experience exile, rhapsodize on the beauty of our planet, lament loss and celebrate renewal. These poets write courageously on what threatens us: climate change, war, mountain-top removal, loss of species, environmental damage, the scourge of cancer. They are witnesses, \u2018Couriers\u2019 who bring us their visions. As the tide rises they reach out to us in deeply personal and clear voices, each providing a unique experience in contemporary poetry.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/thumb\/9781926715902.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"162\" height=\"240\" \/><br \/>\nThe Book of Now: Poetry for the Rising Tide<br \/>\nPaperback: 110 pages<br \/>\nPublisher: il piccolo editions<br \/>\nFirst edition<br \/>\nPublication Date: Nov 1, 2012<br \/>\nLanguage: English<br \/>\nISBN-10: 192671590X<br \/>\nISBN-13: 978-1926715902<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"fisherking-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"manual\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_design = \"enhanced_links\";\namzn_assoc_asins = \"192671590X\";\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"f3b6221d8b1bc9e5c7b1e2cedba7fe28\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4742,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[914,754],"product_tag":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/306"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=306"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=306"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fisherkingpress.com\/n\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
