Walking, getting lost, and finding home is refuge in an unsettling world, are the themes in Sarah Corbett's fifth collection. Written from an intimate knowledge of the Calder Valley, these poems respond to a landscape as beautiful as it is disquieting, troubled by a warming climate and by violence.
