'The front cover of Anne Walsh’s second book of poetry shows an image from wildlife photographer John E. Marriot of a solitary wolf in a snowy landscape, at the edge of a road, howling. The forest in the background is a texture of trees felled and stripped of their foliage and pines still standing. The dirt road narrows and curves out behind the wolf which stands, feet planted, head tipped to the sky, a small warm point of contrast against the snow and devastation.' (Introduction)
