Discover an invisible food economy which many of us are not aware of. From being in the fields on a small farm, to the gassed, sanitized, and inspected world of a dried fruit factory, to kitchen and catering work, \u003cem\u003eToo Many Seeds\u003c\/em\u003e takes us on a journey with food production, particularly focused on what this means in America. The poems present intimate snapshots and explorations on how food comes to us and carefully considers how we tend to the earth, others we are in community with as well as ourselves, and what that means for our nourishment. Juan Felipe Herrera, former U.S. Poet Laureate, writes: \"Gabrielle Myers does not shy away from a kind of post-mod naturalism, where we can taste things, see things, and even - I dare say - touch their 'opalescent crisp skin.' Although world-stuff and social-stuff shifts and is disassembled in the scenic constructions of her poetics, she manages a lush 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century personal pointillism. Most lovely, most alluring.\" \u003cem\u003ePoets and Writers: California Writers Exchange Conte\u003c\/em\u003es\u003cem\u003et.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.15 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 03, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42707395543103,"sku":"9781646627080","price":34.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/34cd4ca7bd0726ee64b79a453d44e0fe.webp?v=1765043935","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/too-many-seeds-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
