Inhaltsangabe

The poems in Jessica Gigot's Flood Patterns vividly depict a lowland place and its people in the farthest northwest corner of the country. As Kevin Craft writes, "The poems are informed by the determined if contested optimism of someone who knows the ground she walks on and its potential to yield both bounty and treachery." And this from Jeanne Murray Walker: "In this debut collection, Jessica Gigot, farmer, scientist, and poet, writes about her territory, the Skagit River Valley. Her poetry is plainspoken, restrained, and entirely believable. Bypassing the ecstatic, she reveals a land and its species that are both threatened and provisional.
