Wild Child: Fantastical Poems

Wild Child: Fantastical Poems is Hillora Lang's first collection of poetry. Inspired by her dreams of the mythical past, and drawn from many places and times, the poems in this collection flit from the ancient past to the imagined future, and incorporate many styles and forms. Using nuanced, luminous language inspired by the works of Christina Rossetti, William Shakespeare, J.R.R. Tolkein, Patricia A. McKillip, and Kage Baker, the subjects of this work are far-ranging and imaginative, and explore her hard-won insights into living, dreaming, and losing what was never found.
