Rodger Martin recommends Field Guide: A Tempo by Henry Walters (Hobblebush Books, 2014)
This 2014 Granite State Poetry Series collection by Henry Walters is an intricate philosophical song to music and nature. One can delve deeply into the philosophy in a reading, but when these poems are spoken aloud, a hidden layer is exposed whose richness and depth carries one away as if on the wings of one of those hawks Walters has nurtured back to the wild.
Rodger Martin, editor and poet, Monadnock Pastoral Pets, Hancock, NH. His latest book, For All The Tea in Zhōngguó, (Hobblebush) features a dual language (Mandarin/English) collection of his poetry published in China and poets from China he has translated as part of the Poetry Bridging Continents Series.
This post is part of our celebration of National Poetry Month 2021 for which I asked New Hampshire poets to recommend books of poetry by Granite State poets. These titles are generally available from local booksellers and may be held in public libraries as well.
