Tricia Knoll is an Oregon poet who grew up in a suburb of Chicago and earned degrees in literature from Stanford University and Yale University. This collection of poems records how her ancestry, education, early childhood and work experiences changed her understanding over many decades of the impact of white privilege on her understanding of race relations. Her poetry appears in dozens of journals and anthologies. This book joins her other published poetry collections Urban Wild, Ocean’s Laughter, and Broadfork Farm which explore ecological relationships in Oregon and Washington.
