"Laura Shore's The Generosity of Birds illuminates the fullness of life from celebration to elegy, from birth to complicated generational grief. '...this has nothing to do with my mother, /... Yet there she is, / a viridian flicker / on the periphery of my gaze, the vibrational key /.' Birds abound whether centerstage or in a reassuring background presence: magpie, Regent Honey Eater, mourning dove, Brush turkey, bellbird, rainbow lorikeet, curlew, galah, and more. We see through the lens of her Australian homeland, and her skill of '... witnessing without being drowned.' An abundance of birds sustains the author and the reader with the vital and timely reminder that all life is connected."
-Jo Brachman, author of Prayers to a Small Stone
