Description

Following her critically acclaimed first collection of poetry, What Fox Knew, poet Mary Barnes’ sophomore collection, Moving Upstream reveals a tempered grace. Barnes brings her Ojibwe roots to the fore and elegantly coaxes out the seemingly quiet world we often take for granted. In this masterful new collection, we are transported to place and time, to the heart and soul of the poet’s love for the natural world.
