Michigan State University Press (Verlag)
978-1-61186-491-5 (ISBN)
Even the Least of These is a collaboration between two talented friends—award-winning poet Anita Skeen and renown printmaker Laura B. DeLind. Seeking to navigate the isolation and uncertainty of the covid-19 pandemic, they challenged each other’s ability to see the small things often neglected and unnoticed. The result is a thoughtful and often joyful collection of poetry and prints that celebrate an awareness of the world around us and reflect on past experiences, lessons learned (or not). This collaboration includes a collection of prints that evoke the feeling of the poems, ranging from humorous to heart-rendering.
Anita Skeen is professor emerita in the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities at Michigan State University where she was the founding director of the RCAH Center for Poetry at Michigan State University and the series editor for Wheelbarrow Books. She is the author of six volumes of poetry. Laura B. DeLind is retired from the Department of Anthropology and the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities at Michigan State University. She is the co-author of TheUnauthorized Audubon.
