There Is News Along the Ohio River is a paean to careful attention and riverwalks. Beth Gilstrap locates the trauma and grief and gratitude of everyday life in the landscape and history of the Ohio River where it separates Louisville, Kentucky, and Jeffersonville, Indiana. This book offers readers the experience of taking a daily walk along the same path--on the surface, each day is much the same; yet if one looks closely enough, each day also holds new beauty, unexpected strangeness. Written in vignettes that exist somewhere between micro-essays and prose poems, Gilstrap explores personal loss and how it intersects with the world one inhabits: the flora and fauna and human-wrought damage at the space between the urban and the natural, the personal and the profound.
