About the author
Justine Durrell presents her second collection, gathering poems that transport the reader through shifting perceptions on history, boundaries, nature, and farm life. Readers praised her previous collection, Rabbits, Angels, and Luck, for its whimsy, "taut lean focus," and perfect balance of "comedy, nostalgia, and woe." Previously a personal injury attorney, Ms. Durrell published original legal works, including "Women's Eggs: Exceptional Endings," in Hastings Women's Law Journal and "Can the Law Handle Human Cloning?" in Trial. At JustineDurrell.net, Ms. Durrell posts essays profiling the lives of astonishing and unsung women from across the centuries. Born and raised on a farm in Colorado, she currently lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
