All Things Holy and Heathen

Chelsea C. Jackson

"All things holy and heathen blurs the lines between past and present, human and animal, and sacred and profane, all while challenging us to look at the monster-gods we create both outside of and within ourselves. Cycling through personal and collective realities of life, death, violation, and reclamation, these poems explore how obsession with power and a limited understanding of morality, further divides us from ourselves, one another, and the earth. Full of lament, rage, joy, and hope, All Things Holy and Heathen is a delicious and daring collection that calls us to courageously question all we think we know if we are to rebuild our fractured world and nurture a revived earth; "one that glows like a fresh secret/ like a flashlight under a heavy quilt.""--
