From fragmented and surreal, to haunted and intimate, poems navigate ideas of culture and identity through explorations of land, place, and nature. As coyotes bleed, birds harmonize, and the sun beams, Bitsui questions where every living being fits into the puzzle of the natural world. Here, the ancient and timeless collide with modern and temporal. \"insisting: dusk is just skin \/ worn on faces,\" Bitsui affirms that beauty is an inevitability of living.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sherwin Bitsui\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1556597339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781556597336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Copper Canyon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Sherwin Bitsui","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48460330500351,"sku":"9781556597336","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_034848c5-0733-43e8-9790-2187686b4ae4.jpg?v=1777414038","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-next-sky-sherwin-bitsui-9781556597336","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
