| Summary: | Since its publication in 1854, Henry David Thoreau's Walden has ensnared the American imagination. In We Are Not Where We Are, poets Matt Donovan and Jenny George perform a chapter-by-chapter erasure of Walden, challenging its deeply flawed beliefs about individualism, the natural world and relationships between people and the land. The resultant poems embody Donovan and George's collaborative spirit, unearthing in Thoreau's text a pluralistic vision of limitless possibility and wild beauty. |
