Into the Woods Résumé

Into the Woods Anna Robinson

Into the Woods takes us to imaginary wild woodland in the centre of London. In this story the woodsman, the wild girl and the widow Mary live in a recognisable present, but being archetypes, they continually try to emerge from our time into one that may never have been - to the Lambeth woods. We too are drawn into our own fantasies of wild woods from folk tales, and here real-life images of Epping Forest and Box Hill fuel our imagination and work to plunge us, resisting, into the centre of the woods, into heterotopia. In the end though, we emerge back to the familiar, and the widow Mary snaps us back to reality when she purchases an acre of woodland from the Archbishop of Canterbury, signaling the end of the wild wood. The second book from Anna Robinson builds upon her acclaimed debut The Finders of London, leading us further into a London that we have never seen

Into the Woods Avis

Praise for Robinson's first collection The Finders of London: -----Poetry Review:'A gorgeously grubby paean to her native city.'----- -----TLS: 'a beautifully constructed collection whose attention to what London is saying makes this such a remarkable debut'-----
