Description: Pamela Alexander's poetry is characterized by inventive language, scrupulous accuracy of imagery, and a winning fusion of the comic and the deeply serious. Her subjects vary as widely as her settings, which range from the New Hampshire woods to the Arizona desert. A family life eccentric to the point of chaos, close observations of wildlife, and coastal sailing are among the poet's topics.

Review Quotes: "Pam Alexander's Inland is quietly acute, witty, and lovely to read. Her poems embrace the outdoors, her poems are giant houses that have beds for foxes, spiders, and tender people."--Alan Lightman, author of Einstein's Dreams
