The Guide to Being Bear Aware S. J. Fowler

Incorporating a breathtaking sweep of international literary and philosophical influences and drawing deeply from the great European poets of the 20th century, The Guide to Being Bear Aware is a poetry collection for our time. From incisions into the political and moral factionalism which so often dominates our online existence, to sincere negotiations of our private lives, our bodies and our minds, in love and in death. This is not only a collection about the ephemerality of human life, but the Anthropocene - the permanently altered world we will leave behind.
