Poetry. ORIGINAL WHITE ANIMALS is Tracy Philpot's third book of poetry. "Tracy Philpot details the most tender apocalypse yet imagined in our day, a Peaceable Kingdom quickly becomes the end of the world. And read it now and see for yourself how all creation will put on new garments of whiteness, and know in yourself and on your own skin what the endless searing tenderness of purity will be. This is a summoning book and a consummation"--Donald Revell.
