Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Poetry. "Most nature writers are observers. Catherine Arra is part of nature. Her encounters with the deer in her backyard are more than simple observations. They are human-to-animal exchanges in which Arra and the animals learn to communicate with each other. Her sensitivity encourages Forest, the first deer she encounters, to trust Arra beyond its own fear of people through the simple medium of an apple. Arra's poignant relationship with Forest and the other deer offers a glimpse into the dangerous existence in which wild animals live. DEER LOVE is a book for lovers: lovers of poetry, lovers of deer and other animals, and lovers of a writer who has shared her big heart with us. She has also shared a generous number of photographs of her 'friends.'"--Zvi A. Sesling
