Description

Gnosis, Cabala, Lake Monsters, Alchemy, Allusion, Hydro, and Harangue. Rising Organ Music. Ruth Taylor’s second collection of poetry, The Dragon Papers is an eclectic and esoteric comedy, precise and preposterous. With one eye on the ancient and obscure and the other on the new, improved and millennial, Taylor’s dragons speak with forked tongues...and make sense!
