Helen Ruggieri’s newest poetry collection Camping in the Galaxy: Haibun and Other Writings about the Natural has just been released by Wood Thrush Books. Haibun are compact prose pieces accompanied by haiku (she is a master at that form) and essays. She celebrates the natural world without turning blind eye to the ravages of human impact, particularly in the Allegheny bioregion of Western New York as well as in her childhood in Pennsylvania coal country.
