This collection of poetry—playful and reflective, impeccably honed—homes in on the desert wildlife that inhabit New Mexico and the U.S. Southwest. That includes us humans, who never quite escape the keen eye and inexhaustible humor of Betsy James. These poems, each illustrated by James herself, remind us how delight and wonder can guide us through our impossible existence in this world, infinite and dangerous and bright as it is.

Infinite and Dangerous and Bright will be published in 2026. Preorders will ship before publication.
