About the Book

like a dark flame burned my minds’s petty length.  I’m tired of human clamor, smudge and clutter of the world. Who wants to go on governed by the same rude horns,  the demagogues, the rabble? Anne Coray is unapologetic in her attempts to bring the plight of the environment to the masses. Her words are forthright, her language is clear—but Coray’s poems are not to be mistaken as easy. Bone Strings is a harrowing, magnificent, and morbid examination of Alaska’s jeopardized wilderness.

About the Author :
Anne Coray lives at her birthplace on remote Qizhjeh Vena (Lake Clark) in southwest Alaska. Her poems have appeared in the Southern Review, Poetry, Seneca Review, Alaska Quarterly Review, and Rattapallax, among others. She lives with her husband, Steve, and her dog, Zipper.

Review :
"Anne Coray's precise, austere, yet sensuous language is a fine instrument for tracing the harsh geography of her native Alaska. Cool as the moon, her poems shine a clear light on unforgiving landscapes, and on tough truths of the heart. Bone Strings sings a hard-earned song." - Stephen Kessler"
