The Natural History of Everything, by Emily Baughman

Poetry, chapbook, 20 pages, from Bottlecap Features.

The Natural History of Everything is a poetry collection about hope, grief, and rebirth in the face of the end of the world. After the ashes, something will always grow; crawling its way through the concrete and softening the edges of the world. This collection invites the reader to be gentle and ease into something brighter. Hope.

Nature returns, matter cycles, energy flows and we are reborn to be deer. There’s beauty in endings. And beginnings.
