Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:"In Going to Seed: Dispatches from the Garden, Charles Goodrich chronicles the changing seasons manifested in his garden. He evokes plants and animals, and our deep human congress with the earth in exquisitely drawn poems, but the heartbeat at the center of his book is the recognition that death is the fuel for all the life that rises out of the fecund earth. This is no dainty plot, no white-gloved garden of roses and daffodils. Goodrich's garden is a teaming, treacherous terrain of great peril, and even greater earthy delights. His book leaves you longing to put your hands into the dirt, to turn the soil and remember where you came from, and where you're going." Gary Young Review:"This is the work of a man who loves words as much as he loves seeds.... The world needs Going to Seed planted in imaginations everywhere." Joseph Bednarik About the AuthorCharles Goodrich is the author two volumes of poems — Going to Seed: Dispatches from the Garden and Insects of South Corvallis — and a collection of essays about nature, parenting, and building his own house, The Practice of Home. His poems and essays have appeared in Orion, the Sun, Open Spaces, Willow Springs, Zyzzyva and many other magazines. A number of his poems have been read by Garrison Keillor on his National Public Radio Program, The Writer's Almanac.
