Winner of the 2020 Michael Waters Poetry Prize. On the brink of climate catastrophe, a mother grappling with her choice to bring children into an apocalyptic world sends her daughters into the woods of fairy tale as a rite of initiation. The woods carry her fears of extinction--devastating fires, rising seas, and the predatory dangers of girlhood--but also contain the transformative magic of love, interdependence, and renewal. AND IF THE WOODS CARRY YOU roots into the wild heart of motherhood, where worry and wonder intertwine.
