There's a field guide for everything in the natural world. Why not for human emotions?

A Field Guide to Human Emotions offers readers a handy, alphabetized guide to their daily emotions, where you'll find both understanding and self-help.

Each page provides a shortcut to that "Aha!" moment we're all trying to find. This collection will inspire you to say, "That's exactly how I felt, but I never knew how to say it.”

This collection provides the reader with smart, new definitions of common terms: from anxiety to jealousy to longing, the poems are often comic, often metaphysical analyses of how we navigate the world through language. It is guaranteed to delight and to instruct with its vivid images and quirky pragmatism.
—Maxine Chernoff, author of 16 books of poetry & 6 of fiction
