The Essential Travis Lane

"Inspired by nature, science, current events, art and music, New Brunswick poet Travis Lane demonstrates a clear-eyed perceptiveness and rhythmic formal technique. This volume celebrates her lilting, insightful work by bringing to the fore a selection of her shorter poems. They are fine examples of her linguistic mastery, as well as the wisdom and heart that characterize her voice." -- Book jacket.
