Clouds Running In

Poetry. Native American Studies. Drawings by Marcer Campbell. "'You will know the poets by the dirt under our nails,' writes Kim Shuck in CLOUDS RUNNING IN, a spirited, witty, moving book of poetry that sings the mystical connections in everyday life. Shuck's vivid imagery balances dark moods and self- deprecating humor. Drawing on her Cherokee and Polish roots, Shuck offers us the bittersweet music of lyrically expressed memory and the generational trauma of the Native American holocaust, lived in nerve and bone."— Linda Rodriguez
