Earth-Cool, and Dirty

Earth-cool, and Dirty is a timely debut collection by Jacob Lee Bachinger, full of wisdom, and beautiful reflections on the state of humanity. It is a call to pay careful attention to the earth, to nurture it in the same way we attend to the people we love. In "My Son Asleep, Age 4, " he observes: "What no one told me, /what I've had to learn for myself:/to love this much is painful."
