More DescriptionWinner of the 2012 Thomas Shapcott Award. Free Logic is a collection of poems about love, logic, sin, gender, and imaginary animals. Transmuting techniques, forms and figures as she moves with enviable ease from themes of love through landscape to logic, Rachael Briggs evinces a relentless inventiveness and intelligence.
