The title of Carl Dennis''s new collection, Earthborn, helps to point the way to its two central concerns: how to find meaning, as creatures of the earth, in lives that are short and frail and destined to be forgotten; and how, as stewards of the earth, to address the need to protect our home from ourselves, from the menace to life posed by our own species.

The book succeeds in braiding together a recognition of our limits and of our responsibilities in ways that are deeply moving and revealing.
