"This beautifully curated anthology reshapes the genre of nature poetry and awakens readers to its richness." –Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Michael Walsh's new anthology of poetry, Queer Nature, highlights an important and capacious countertradition of queer poets who identify nonnormative sexualities with nature. In so doing, it introduces an important new archive for scholars attentive to the generative intersection of queerness and nature." –ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment
"This compendium of gifted contemporary LGBTQA+ poets, representing all ethnicities, takes its place next to masterworks by queer poets of the past including Hart Crane, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Countee Cullen, Langston Hughes, Claude McKay, Frank O'Hara, Audre Lorde, Thom Gunn, Adrienne Rich, and others. Walsh obviously curates with an eye toward authentic craft, past and present." –Edge Media
"From the elliptical probings of Carl Phillips to Amy Lowell wrestling with nasty plants, this collection from over 200 contributors provides a broad overview of the work of LGBT poets past and present, including many well-known poets." –The Gay & Lesbian Review
"Some entries are overtly queer, others poetry about nature by queer writers, but all connected by views of nature where the personal meets the wild." –Sierra Magazine
