Natural woman
Poet Camille Dungy, a guest of the Environmental Literature Institute at Exeter, shared excerpts Monday from her fourth book, "Soil: The Story of a Black Mother's Garden," that recounts her seven-year quest to transform her nondescript lawn in a northern Colorado sub-division into an oasis for native flora. The project — and the book — serve as a metaphor to expose the perils of homogeneity and champion the importance of diversity in nature, in writing and in life.
