We’re excited to announce that we will publish a collection of poems by poet Daniel Smith. ANCESTRAL will be released early summer 2021. Daniel Smith’s ANCESTRAL draws from the thirty years he farmed his family’s dairy farm in northwestern Illinois.
With poetry grounded in the rural Midwest, ANCESTRAL explores a family’s deep attachment to the land, the physical work of farming and the emotional disruption one endures when such a life is no longer sustainable. These poems provide a powerful depiction of the changes impacting agriculture and our rural communities.
Follow us for updates on Dan’s book as well as for all of our authors.
