James Crews was already collecting poems of joy, hope and gratitude for How to Love the World, when the novel coronavirus pandemic suddenly spread across the globe; forcing the majority of the population to shelter in place for the better part of 2020. I was putting the book together right before spring and I was just in search of some of that hope of a new day to come, Crews said.
A year later, those much needed messages of renewal, of new life, he said, feel more relevant than before. How to Love the World: Poems of Gratitude and Hope, set for release on March 23, is Storey Publishing s first book of collected poems; its first book of poetry. Crews, who lives on an organic farm with his husband in Shaftsbury, Vt., is a professor of poetry and creative writing at the University of Albany and the author of three collections of poetry of his own.
