What is Here Is Where We Disembark about?

<p>With her remarkable debut collection, Yukon poet Clea Roberts proffers a perceptive &amp; ecological reading of the Canadian North’s past &amp; present.</p> <p>Roberts deftly draws out the moments that comprise a cycle of seasons, paying as much attention to the natural—the winter moon’s second-hand light that pools in the tracks of tree squirrels &amp; loose threads of migrating birds—as she does to the manufactured—the peripheral percussion of J-brakes &amp; half-melted ice lanterns. She also casts her gaze back to the Klondike Gold Rush of 1897-1898, raising the voices of those marked by a frenetic race for fortune: a seductive, edgy wolf, a disillusioned photographer, and a pragmatic prostitute, among others.</p> <p>Here Is Where We Disembark is a beautifully crafted book that ignites the senses, and its presence lingers, like woodsmoke, long after the final page has been turned.</p>
