The poems in \u003ci\u003eDrift Ice\u003c\/i\u003e view the natural world through a lens of ecological and spiritual concerns. They focus especially on Prince William Sound in Alaska fifteen years after the Exxon-Valdez oil spill, Long Island Sound at the estuarial mouth of the Connecticut River, and Sri Lanka before (and, in one poem, after) the tsunami. The poems address the myth of a once pristine wilderness and the indifferent, ever-changing nature of \"nature\" and our human place in it, as they also investigate the flexibility and lambency of lyric form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJennifer Atkinson\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of two collections of poetry--\u003ci\u003eThe Dogwood Tree\u003c\/i\u003e, which won the University of Alabama Poetry Prize, and \u003ci\u003eThe Drowned City\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the Samuel French Morse Prize.
