Still the Animals Enter

The world extends itself to us. Some refuse the offer, electing to take their own lives. Others pull back, subscribing to fear and the egos need for order. Still, the wild, ungovernable forces break throughin this book, in the form of animals: exuberant dogs, deer splintering a fence, bears that slip in through the door of dreams. Hilberrys poetry explores lifes large energies and our resistances.
