This latest collection of Graham's work leads us through the eerie moonlit world and the shadows that linger at the edges in broad daylight. These are poems that turn an image on a dime and are haunt you long after you’ve set the book aside.
Taylor Graham is a volunteer search-and-rescue dog handler in the Sierra Nevada, and also helps her husband (a retired forester/wildlife biologist) with his field projects. Her poems have appeared in America, Grand Street, The Iowa Review, The New York Quarterly, Poetry International, Wicked Alice, and elsewhere, and she’s included in the new anthology, California Poetry: From the Gold Rush to the Present (Santa Clara University, 2004).

Press, 1992), Casualties: search-and-rescue poems (Coal City Review, 1995), Next Exit (Cedar Hill Publications, 1999), An Hour in the Cougar's Grace (Pudding House Publications, 2000), This Morning According to Dog (Hot Pepper Press, 2001), Greatest Hits 1973-2001 (Pudding House Publications, 2002), Still Life with Wood Smoke (Mt.
