Bright Flower

Published by Bear Scratch Press at the University of Montana in November 2024, Bright Flower is a contemporary rendering of the Demeter and Persephone myth. It includes six poems, both new and previously published, that explore agriculture in relation to the mother / daughter relationship.

The artwork is by Robin Graf Dorsey. The text is set in 14 point Van Dijck by Barret Odom, Gary Jensen, Trinity Herr, Lisa Kouroupis, Hazel Videon, and Alex Anderlik. Fifty signed and numbered copies were printed under the able guidance of David Axelrod and A. F. Ore. 

This quire of poems is not available for purchase.
