Blurbs requested from Campbell McGrath, Van Jordan, Molly Peacock, Beth Ann Fennelly, and Abigail Thomas., "ReadingHeather Sellers' new book of poems, I am by turns dazzled, harrowed,fascinated, afraid, and then my mouth falls open coming upon an image or aphrase so lovely and unexpected that I have to close my eyes and let itsurround me. Field Notes from the Flood Zone is abook so spectacularly original that you don't just read these poems, yousteep yourself in them. What a triumph!" --AbigailThomas, author of Safekeeping

Synopsis
From the frontlines of climate catastrophe, a poet watches the sea approach her doorstep. Born and raised in Florida, Heather Sellers grew up in an extraordinarily difficult home. The natural world provided a life-giving respite from domestic violence. She found, in the tropical flora and fauna, great beauty and meaningful connection. She made her way by trying to learn the name of every flower, every insect, every fish and shell and tree she encountered. That world no longer exists. In this collection of poems, Sellers laments its loss, while observing, over the course of a year, daily life of the people and other animals around her, on her street, and in her low-lying coastal town, where new high rises soar into the sky as the storm clouds gather with increasing intensity and the future of the community--and seemingly life as we know it--becomes more and more uncertain. Sprung from her daily observation journals, haunted by ghosts from the past, Field Notes from the Flood Zone is a double love letter: to a beautiful and fragile landscape, and to the vulnerable young girl who grew up in that world. It is an elegy for the two great shaping forces in a life, heartbreaking family struggle and a collective lost treasure, our stunning, singular, desecrated Florida, and all its remnant beauty., Drawn from daily observations, Heather Sellers's poems ponder the changing Florida Coast as the population swells and the waters rise., Heather Sellers has appeared widely in the media for her nonfiction writing, in particular for her memoir You Don't Look Like Anyone I Know , which describes her family history with mental illness and her diagnosis of prosopagnosia (face-blindness) in her late 20s. She has appeared on Dateline, Dick Gordon's The Story, Good Morning America, NPR's All Things Considered, Rachel Ray, and The Today Show as well as local radio and television programs in New York City and Tampa Bay, Florida. Strong regional appeal in the South, with particular appeal in Florida and other cities along the Gulf Coast. Along with shifts in the natural landscape, Sellers's poems chronicle the shifts in her community as thousands of people move to Florida--"That's a whole Pittsburg dropped here on this fragile, slender peninsula each year," she notes. "I'm as interested in the behavior of the humans around me as I am in the clouds, reptiles, and vines." Publication will coincide with Earth Day 2022.

Item description from the seller
Seller Feedback (353,582)
- 8***5 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI didn't see a verbal description of this book as "hardcover" or paperback. Cover design and price were similar to both cover styles. I thought I'd left a question for the seller, but I may have done something wrong. The package was too small to match the hardcovers previously received so I returned it unopened. Seller was very efficient, and packaging offered excellent protection. Haven't checked to see if refund was processed.
