“If you believe that sky and skin, that earth and hair, that flesh and tree bark, that the rustle of pines and a moan of pleasure — are so inherently the same … then you need Claudia F. Savage’s rending, nourishing, dazzling collection [Bruising Continents] in your life. In your bed. Ringing through your bones.”
