A bold look at the Amazon rain forest in poems and photographs. What makes the rain forest unique? Is it the sky? The birds? The river? If you look deep into the Amazon, you can find a caste system of ants, termites, and wasps, a caiman waiting quietly in the water, and nighttime dreams that float up to the stars. David Harrison's poems make the plants, the creatures, and the people of the Amazon come up from their roots, down from their nests, out from their huts, and into the minds of his readers.
