Among the Trees is a chapbook of poems and photographs focusing primarily on the Southeastern region of Oklahoma.
The poems and pictures highlight the region's natural beauty, history, and culture, providing readers a chance to experience the area through the eyes of lifelong resident, Cullen Whisenhunt , who turns his observations into a contemplation on the intersection of identity and place.
But when the lowest boughs are penetrated, they reveal not a single tree, but a copse of cedars grown so close, so intimate, their branches strip each other vulnerable --from the title poem.
