Hi Friends, my new book is almost ready for prime time. Meaning, you can do a pre-order, now here, and it will come to you via Bookshop in a few weeks.
If you just can’t wait, it’s already up on Amazon. I’m trying hard not to give them any business, but really, up to you. And if you do order from Amazon, please consider leaving a review, as that’s the only way it will consistently show up on their site.
In the meantime, here’s what these amazing and talented poets had to say about Ambergris. I’m so grateful for these kind endorsements from poets whose work I admire:
“Amy Dryansky explores illness, family, motherhood, and the natural world with a voice both searching and unsentimental. “What can’t be digested made / precious-like ambergris.” This is a collection that faces the world’s difficulty without surrendering its wonder”.
-JANUARY GILL O’NEILL, AUTHOR, GLITTER ROAD“Amy Dryansky’s newest book is a garden, fraught and tangled with all the right flora: asters and witch hazel, broken corn stalks and pizza boxes and bird bones-these poems unearth so many new strains of loss, grief, and the beautiful estrangement that comes with living… What a surprising, gorgeous book”.
-W. TODD KANEKO, AUTHOR, THIS IS HOW THE BONE SINGS“What happens when the ground of what we’ve believed shifts, when we “can’t invent a different ending?” Ambergris is a brilliantly crafted work of heartache and wit and frankness and complicated beauty from a poet writing at her finest”.
-JENNIFER K. SWEENEY, AUTHOR, FOXLOGIC, FlREWEED
Thanks for visiting, and if you get the book, let me know what you think!
