I’ve got a new short essay about an aged apple tree in my backyard in this wonderfully curated collection of tree-themed writing. Now available via bookshop and elsewhere.
“Series editor Josh MacIvor-Andersen returns with tales of birth, death, resurrection and reincarnation. Sagas of leaving and returning, of harrowing bravery and crippling fear. Lyric essays about moon trees and space debris, personal narratives braiding the assassination of JFK (on Elm Street!) with the resilience of a relationship and the suffering of surgery. Fruit, both ripe and rotted, bees and blossoms, roots and branches pruned, broken, or holding their own. Just like us. Just like all of us.”
