Staff Picks for Invertebrates

Welcome to Russell Books: an indie bookstore on an island in the Pacific Ocean, where anemones dispense life advice and staff recommend books to mollusks. Staff Picks for Invertebrates, inspired by the poet’s experiences over the last decade working in a large bookstore, is love letter to books, and to people who love books. In these poems, divisions between human and non-human fall away. Staff and customers, swallows and starfish, the store itself and the books that live inside: all are part of the same family and dwell in the same fragile, radiant world.

Zoe Dickinson is a manager at Russell Books and Artistic Director emerita of the Planet Earth Poetry Reading Series. Staff Picks for Invertebrates is her debut collection of poems.
