At the intersection of poetry and prose, Sharon White's The Body Is Burden and Delight examines ecological communities in fragile northern landscapes, and in the geography of the poet's daily life. Moving from Denmark and Sweden, to Lithuania, Shetland, and Wales, White explores the inner landscape of myth and dreams inspired by a deep connection to the earth, and the beauty and loss inherent in those ecosystems.
