Description: Voted one of the five best poetry collections for 2012 by <em>Publishers Weekly</em>, <em>Animal Eye</em> employs pastoral motifs to engage a discourse on life and love, as <em>Coal Hill Review</em> states "It is as if a scientist is at work in the basement of the museum of natural history, building a diorama of an entire ecosystem via words. She seem snot only interested in using the natural world as a metaphoric lens in her poems but is set on building them item by item into natural worlds themselves."
