Even So They Reach

Even So They Reach gathers a new collection of Keith Shein's poems focused on the outdoors. In previous work he has written of the weight and grandeur of Nature and these themes can also be found in this new book. However they exist side-by-side poems that also concern the difficulty of being in Nature from the danger of its predators to living in extremes of weather to the literal coming to terms with the indifference of the outdoors to the human condition. In this issues of living with neighbors far and near are also brought to light.
