“Lauren Turner’s "Shape Note Singing" is a kind of sheet music for “the fault-lines between my hearing and my listening.” These fault-lines are not a map of our failure to truly listen — to the present moment, the echo of its history and future — but of the lived conditions that give each song its tone and timbre. Her poetry tunes us to hear ourselves in the acoustics that surround us, and to remember, as each moment happens, that we are not just witnesses but active participants in the creation of this world.”
-Dan Hoy, author of "The Terraformers"
