The Nomenclature of Small Things

The Nomenclature of Small Things explores grief through the language of science, history, and art. From Charles Darwin to Carl Linnaeus, from the passenger pigeon to fossil ammonites, each poem seeks to name, to enumerate, to order--to claim a particular place for the human creature in a catalog of extinction and loss.
