Books by Robyn Schiff

Reckons with the array of foreboding objects displayed at the Great Exhibition of 1851 and the traces of their ghosts one hundred years later.

Robyn Schiff's poems enquire about making, buying, selling and stealing in the material world, the natural landscape and the human soul. Schiff moves from Cartier and Tiffany to the Shedd Aquarium, from Marie Antoinette to the Civil War and from Mary Pickford to Marilyn Monroe.
