Poet Jeri Lewis Edwards is one of our very best environmental writers to date.  Capable of turning language into a sixth sense, her stunning chapbook, This Place of Wanting Nothing, transforms sight into insight and moment into momentum.  This book is a gift.  Jeri Lewis Edwards is entreating the earth and us into an honest intimate dialogue.  On a terrain between longing and loss where her attention might “begin again at a raven in flight,” so too can a marmot’s “scurrying across the bridal veil precipice” of ice and snow become the writer’s own journey reminder that “today is tomorrow” for earth and all living things.  Her captivating mediation relationships (nature, marriage, identity) are as playful as they are deadly serious, as universally visionary as they are personable, “small improbable green” delights that will wow you with their “dips and swales of every turn.”
