Description

"Through more than a dozen collections, C.D. Wright pushed the bounds of imagination as she explored desire, loss and physical sensation. Her posthumously published book, ShallCross features seven poem sequences that show her tremendous range in style and approach.

Wright is entirely her own poet, a true original."—The Gettysburg Review In a turbulent world, C.D.
