Description

Across this remarkable first book are encounters with animals, legendary beasts, and mythological monsters - half human and half something else. Donika Kelly's Bestiary is a catalogue of creatures - from the whale and ostrich to the pegasus and chimera to the centaur and griffin. Among them too are poems of love, self-discovery, and travel, from Out West' to 'Back East.' Selected and with an introduction by National Book Award winner Nikky Finney, Bestiary questions what makes us human, what makes us whole.'
