The work in Mary Leader's third collection, Beyond the Fire, does not conform to any one habitation, nor aesthetic persuasion, nor name. On the contrary, just about every poem invents its own territory and its own terms. Some poems are straightforward narratives, while others repeat spells and castings. Many are figural; some are classical; some even aspire to anonymity. The book is designed to range the globe and fathom the centuries, albeit, in the end, the poet's settlement is but a momentary locality.

Autorenporträt
Mary Leader is from Oklahoma. She is well on the other side of rearing children there, practicing law there, turning late to poetry there, and, at age 49, publishing her first book of poems, Red Signature, a selection in the prestigious National Poetry Series. She also spent years in scattered collegiate settings: Massachusetts, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, Indiana. Now she has moved back to Oklahoma, her vantage point. The majority of her work, meanwhile, has traveled to Great Britain. The Wood That Will be Used is her sixth collection, her fourth from Shearsman Books, whose present location is in Oxfordshire.
