The Witch of the Inner Wood

- Collected Long Poems

Bag om The Witch of the Inner Wood

Like the novella in fiction, the long poem is an oft-neglected form. Too long for publication in most literary journals and anthologies, too short to merit a book-length publication, the long poem occupies a lonely space in our literature. Yet, M. Travis Lane is a master of the form, and it's here that her considerable poetic skills reach their apex. Lane's poetry is modernist, dense, and highly allusive, drawing adeptly on classical and biblical sources and imbued with a feminist and ecocritical perspective. Her musical lines, vivid metaphors, and phenomenological acumen reach their highest expression in the long poetic form. There are few that match her brilliance. This exquisite volume brings together, for the first time, the complete collection of Lane's long poems. Together, they offer an astounding journey through five decades of imaginative space and time.
