Kerri's book pick this week is "Sun Under Wood," a Robert Hass poetry collection from 1996. It won the National Book Critics Circle Award.
Kerri is particularly fond of the poem "Happiness" and loves the unexpected topics that Hass chooses to write about, like dragonflies mating.
Hear Garrison Keillor read "Happiness" on Writer's Almanac.
