Geometry of the restless herd / by Black, Sophie Cabot,author.(CARDINAL)377396;
"A collection of poems by Sophie Cabot Black"--"In Geometry of the Restless Herd, Sophie Cabot Black stages a powerful allegory for the social and political realities of our human world. Through hauntingly metaphysical poems set within a sheepherder's domain, Black conjures fields of harvest and resurrection, of wagers and outcomes--animals to keep, and those to send to slaughter. Here, both singular voices and polyvocal choruses ask, Who has the real power, and how are we to survive the violence we do to one another?"--
