Description
Poetry. Winner of the 2016 Dorothy Brunsman Poetry Prize. THE GUNNYWOLF, Megan Snyder-Camp's third collection of poems, takes its title from an obscure folk tale about a wolf that scares little girls for their songs. Aiming to articulate what has been hiding in plain sight, Snyder-Camp considers whiteness, environmental racism, the Baltimore protests, mothering, and the everyday wilderness of modern-day life; her poem sequence is a necessary and bold venture into the most pressing issues of our times.
