Georgann Eubanks is known for her guidebooks that invite readers to explore the literary, cultural, culinary, and ecological heritage of the South. With her first volume of poetry, Rural Astronomy, Eubanks invites new explorations. These poems shift between childhood memories and her contemporary observations of the ongoing clash between Nature and human entitlement. With incisive vision and an occasional poke at the patriarchy, this memoir-in-poems hints at the magnitude of future degradations-by climate and human character-while inviting us to remember the guiding stars of a simpler past. For Eubanks, there are no brighter stars than her grandparents, Bomer and Stella, whose stories and lives frame these poems as well as Eubanks' startlingly unique perspective.Rural Astronomy celebrates an adventurous life through poetry that is both personal and universal, reflective and prescient.
