The Ascension of Sheep, Collected Poems Volume One (1980-2005)

This is the first volume of a three-volume Collected Poems by John Kinsella.

Kinsella’s major poetic concerns have been how to write place without claiming place (he acknowledges he lives on stolen Aboriginal land), how to write of being part of many place-experiences at once, and how to write the biosphere with ecological and humanitarian justice in mind.
