Lee Peterson’s manuscript, In the Hall of North American Mammals, won the 2021 CPR Book Award. The book will be released in January, 2023. “A grandmother, the wolf, and a landscape of hills lit by dusk and snow populate Peterson’s radiant new collection,” notes Shara McCallum. Author Sally Rosen Kindred writes, “The poems of Lee Peterson’s In the Hall of North American Mammals explore the haunting, dangerous borders between story and reality, domestic and wild, mother and child. These poems are meditations crafted in the terror of familial love.”

Pre-orders of In the Hall of North American Mammals are on sale now in the CPR Bookstore.
