Form Poetry (Villanelles)

I am so pleased to announce that my poem "Sugar Baby Fixing" (from High Notes) is included in this brand new anthology, Villanelles, co-edited by Annie Finch and Marie-Elizabeth Mali. The book is to be published by Everyman's Library Pocket Poets Series, forthcoming in early 2012.  


More to come later on.

Congratulations Lois!

Thanks! This is a really wonderful book. The preface and introduction are super smart and useful to all levels of poets and readers of poetry. The structure is intelligent as well and the poets represented cover a large spectrum--for example, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Rita Dove, Seamus Heaney etc. And because Random House publishes Everyman's Library Pocket Poet Series, the book will be widely available.
