As we struggle to understand how our natural environment is swiftly changing-glacial poles beginning to melt, forests and jungles denuded and compromised, fellow creatures increasingly endangered-our fragile, intimate connection to nature is more than ever thrown into focus. And yet nature pervades our lives in the most essential, complex ways, and will surely outlive any human follies that might threaten it. "Conjunctions: 64, Natural Causes" radically reimagines the venerable genre of nature writing, collecting fictional narratives in which landscape is central, sometimes even a character, along with essays on our far-flung habitats, which are thriving as well as suffering. It presents works of ecopoetry, poetic incursions into the seemingly infinite communities of nature's outposts, from coral reefs to tundras, lush alpine meadows to drought-stricken plains. Contributors to this issue include Russell Banks, Joyce Carol Oates, Noy Holland, Miranda Mellis and many others.
