Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude is a sustained meditation on that which goes away–loved ones, the seasons, the earth as we know it–that tries to find solace in the processes of the garden and the orchard. That is, this is a book that studies the wisdom of the garden and orchard, those places where all–death, sorrow, loss–is converted into what might, with patience, nourish us.

Reviews
In this bright book of life, Ross Gay lopes through the whole alphabet of emotions, from anger to zest. Merely considering the letter 'R, ' for example, these poems are by turns racy, rollicking, reflective, rambunctious, raunchy, and rhapsodic. Praise and lamentation rub shoulders, along with elegy and elation, and every page is dazzling.– "Scott Russell Sanders, author of Earth Works: Selected Essays"
