Frost in the Low Areas

Poetry. "With FROST IN THE LOW AREAS, Karen Skolfield's debut collection, a multi-faceted poet enters our midst. In these well-made and welcoming poems Skolfield is a country mouse, a girl in the woods, a daughter, a mother, a lover, a friend, a wife, a soldier and most of all, in her measured lines, a poet of grace, wit and purpose. I love how these poems examine what Skolfield encounters, inviting us in, letting us go renewed and eager and prepared to know more."--Dara Wier
