Running Among the Trees-New & Selected Poems is a vibrant and uplifting collection that includes 147 of Ahrend Torrey's best poems, handpicked by him from five previously published collections. Not only does this collection showcase his best work thus far, but it begins with 26 new poems, titled Running Among the Trees-that read like an enchanted story all their own. The 30 new poems throughout this collection encapsulate Chicago's surrounding nature and fuse it with Ahrend's mediative, resilient voice. This collection is a testament to Ahrend's ever-evolving style and to his growth as a poet, a collection that will leave you feeling hopeful while acknowledging that we live in a time that feels less so. (For every copy of this collection that is sold via the lulu.com bookstore, a donation will be made to the Jane Goodall Institute or similar organization.)
