Red List Blue

More about the book

In her tender and incisive debut poetry collection, Red List Blue (Semifinalist, Codhill Press Poetry Award), Lizzy Fox navigates love, loss, and anxiety against the backdrop of today's global environmental crises. Fox catalogues failed relationships and dying species, explores complicity in the rapid decline of the natural world, and meditates on the small and stubbornly hopeful, making Red List Blue both ode and elegy in equal measure. Poet Cynthia Huntington writes, "These poems...radiate a hard-earned love for this difficult world." Poems in the collection have been previously published in journals such as The Greensboro Review, Hunger Mountain, and Puerto Del Sol.
