Silas House
A timely and poignant poetry collection by acclaimed author and former Poet Laureate of Kentucky Silas House, including the poem read at Governor Andy Beshear’s 2023 inauguration and an interview by Barbara Kingsolver.
Silas House is known throughout the South as a quintessential person of letters—a novelist, music journalist, environmental activist, columnist, and the former Poet Laureate of Kentucky. His first full-length collection of poetry blends his Appalachian upbringing with his ongoing relation to the natural world. Poems of praise for community and the collective appear alongside others tinged with nostalgia and grief when House keenly observes the loss of rural America as he once knew it. Returning to his touchstone subjects, Silas recalls wild places, echoes stories from a lingering and living past, and explores an abiding connection to family, friends, and fellow artists.
©2026 Silas House (P)2026 Silas HouseReseñas de la crítica
“Silas House is a southern institution, and his first collection of poetry is heartbreaking in all the best ways. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who loves the South more while continually working to understand its history and untangle its present.”—Jason Isbell, Grammy-winning singer and songwriter
“An author I reliably depend on to represent our home with respect, beauty, and authenticity. I love the sense of pride that comes through in so many of these poems.”—Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead
“Early in Silas House’s poetry collection All These Ghosts, the landscape is set so beautifully, so skillfully, so convincingly, that I carried the Kentucky mountains and its people with me as I turned every consequent page, feeling the accumulation of love, and love’s losses, as if watching a wild onion grow, that ancient symbol of complicated but natural love. There is Wordsworthian eloquence in Silas House’s impressive and gorgeous poetry debut. What a gift to readers everywhere.”—Kathleen Driskell, Kentucky Poet Laureate 2025-26 and author of Goat-Footed Gods: Poems
