Described by the author as "my dropping-out book," Arielle Greenberg's Come Along With Me to the Pasture Now maps her decision to leave city life and an academic career, and relocate with her family to a rural area. These poems return frequently to a concept of community. What relationships do we have with the people and environments that surround us? In what ways are we aware of ourselves, and of others? How does one process one's place in cultural legacies that have both created and endured harm? These poems are often willingly uncomfortable as they seek to understand-mindful of failures, with the goal of doing and being better.
