Gratitude with Dogs under Stars features Debra Marquart’s three collections of lyric poetry and adds twenty-one new poems to round out the experience. Beginning with the collection of new poems, the collection travels backward through Marquart’s illustrious career. Long-time fans and newcomers alike can track the trajectory of this Poet Laureate’s poetic life thus far―the quiet serenity of walking dogs under a starry sky, the horrors of fracking, the beginnings of a tender relationship at a firing range, reflecting on the follies of a youthful life lived carefree. Marquart’s imagery is vivid and concise, painting moments so intrinsically midwestern and so alive they could only be hers.
