The Habitable World
Poetry. "Anderson has built THE HABITABLE WORLD slowly and with a steely calm. She is fearless and will not be hurried. Her poetry, like our world, embodies time. Reader, if you enter these poems, you will live inside them and they will live in you" - William Corbett. "With their gorgeous locutions and turns, their heady breath, Beth Anderson's poems haunt, inhabit, and conjure the world we carry and contemplate in our daily passage through landscape and language. This delicate world so disclosed is here made luminous in stunning detail" - Peter Gizzi.

One of the first Instance Press books, and Beth's first book--it was a finalist for the Norma Farber Award.
Beth's work is dense, demanding, and really original.
