Award-winning Northwest poet and nature writer, Tim McNulty's third poetry collection explores the universal themes of family, friendship, work, and solitude, all within the larger context of the natural world. For McNulty that world embraces the mountains, rivers, forests, and coastlines of the Pacific Northwest where he has made his home for more than four decades. McNulty's clear voice and attentive eye bring the people, landscapes, and creatures that inhabit these poems vividly to life.
