Description



Book Synopsis



In The Warm Land, Jacqueline Pearce returns to her childhood home in the Cowichan Valley, marked by the haunting sounds of migrating geese, the warm sweetness of a ripe blackberry, and the close darkness of a moonless night. With the precise form of haiku, Pearce distills moments of childhood, adolescence and the dawn of adulthood, carrying the reader through an arc that is both personal and universal-- from discovery and awe, to loss and nostalgia, and, finally, to homecoming.



About the Author



Jacqueline Pearce is an award-winning poet and children's book author who grew up in the Cowichan Valley, traditional land of the Quw' utsun. Influenced by degrees in both English Literature and Environmental Studies, Jacqueline's writing explores relationships between personal and local history, cultures and nature. She is editor of Last Train Home, an international anthology of haiku, tanka and rengay on the theme of train travel, which won the 2022 Haiku Society of America Merit award for best haiku anthology. The Warm Land is Jacqueline's first collection of her own haiku.
