Notes From Your Bookseller The title alone is enough to make you giddy. As we’ve seen in the beauty of such books as Aimee Nezhukumatathil’s World of Wonders, nature can’t be celebrated enough. We love this small as a bug book of poetry. We get a renewed sense of the world from the clever chapters that divide each insect into their literary group — ants and bees in “Workers,” crickets and cicadas in “Singers” — to the impressive and diverse selection of poems. A unique anthology of poems—from around the world and through the ages—that celebrates the gloriously diverse insect world. Given that insects vastly outnumber us, it is no surprise that many cultures have long and rich traditions of verse about our tiny fellow creatures. Tang Dynasty poets in China and the haiku masters of Japan composed thousands of works in praise of crickets, grasshoppers, cicadas, moths, and butterflies, as well as such humbler bugs as houseflies, fleas, and mosquitoes. In the West, poems about insects date back to the ancient Greeks and appear frequently in Europe from the Elizabethan period onward. The brilliant poets collected here range far and wide in time and place, including Tu Fu, John Donne, Kobayashi Issa, William Wordsworth, Victor Hugo, Ivan Turgenev, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Robert Frost, E. E. Cummings, Elizabeth Bishop, Ted Hughes, Pablo Neruda, Mary Oliver, Xi Chuan, and Kevin Young. Bees, butterflies, and beetles, cockroaches and caterpillars, fireflies and dragonflies, ladybugs and glowworms—the miniature beings that adorn these pages are as varied as the poetic talents that celebrate them.
