Description

A mesmerizing collection of poems, *War of the Foxes* explores what it means to be alive amid the intertwined forces of love, violence, history, and memory. Moving through images of paintings, battlefields, intimate encounters, and transformed landscapes, the poems question how we construct meaning—and how we recognize ourselves within the frames of art and experience. With startling precision and emotional intensity, the collection turns the fable of foxes and rabbits into a meditation on desire, vulnerability, survival, and the ways lovers seek refuge in one another. The result is a haunting, intellectually rigorous work that invites readers to look more closely at the world and at themselves.
