Title: The Scented Fox
First published: November 2007
Description: Selected by Alice Notley for the National Poetry Series, Laynie Browne’s sixth collection casts a spell. In these fragmented poetic tales, characters disappear and reemerge, their charms reconfigured, their stories unraveling, their happy endings elusive. The book’s coda consists of a fantastical poetic dictionary, asking readers to redefine their sense of meaning.
Subjects: Poetry, American poetry, Women authors, Poetry (poetic works by one author)
