Us from Nothing
A poetic journey through the history of humanity and the cosmos.
From the Big Bang to the emergence of Homo sapiens to the moon landing, Us From Nothing is a sprawling history of humanity. Geoff Bouvier strives to answer the big Who are we? Where did we come from? How did we get here? This sweeping collection of prose poetry gracefully captures the arc of our universe.
Fifteen billion years ago, there was nothing, not even light. Now, we live in a universe that plays host to trillions of galaxies with uncountable stars, worlds, and maybe even other life. Us From Nothing recounts this epic tale in richly imagined, yet crisp, prose poems that are carefully grounded in historical fact. The result is a remarkable poetic retelling of history that challenges us to think deeply not only about where we've come from, but also about where we're going. For readers interested in poetry, science, and the human condition.
