Wonder-Work: Selected Sonnets of Catharina Regina von Greiffenberg is a collection of poems co-translated with Sally Ito and Sarah Klassen. Greiffenberg (1633-1694) was highly regarded in her time, but little of her work had been translated into English. We are very pleased to contribute to the revival of an almost-forgotten voice, and bring more of her highly original work to an English-speaking readership.
This is astonishing Metaphysical poetry: original, provocative, reverent.

Cattail Skyline is my second collection of poetry, published by Turnstone Press in 2021.
With vivid detail and a sense of quiet reverence, Cattail Skyline captures a myriad of landscapes where every change of season and slant of light reveals something previously unnoticed, and where even the most well- trodden paths hold the potential for new discovery.

My first full-length poetry collection, Eigenheim (Turnstone Press), was published in 2015.
Eigenheim is a beautiful and substantial first book from a poet who courageously embraces the contemporary world with all its uncertainty, gives it her full attentiveness, and communicates it in images and sounds of enduring power.
