Since its publication in 1854, Henry David Thoreau’ s Walden has ensnared the American imagination. In We Are Not Where We Are, poets Matt Donovan and Jenny George perform a chapter-by-chapter erasure of Walden, challenging its deeply flawed beliefs about individualism, the natural world, and relationships between people and the land. The resultant poems embody Donovan and George’ s collaborative spirit, unearthing in Thoreau’ s text a pluralistic vision of limitless possibility and wild beauty.
