Christina Pugh’s second book of poems, Restoration, is forthcoming from TriQuarterly Books (Northwestern University Press) in the fall of 2008. She is also the author of Rotary (Word Press, 2004) and the chapbook Gardening at Dusk (Wells College Press, 2002), and is currently at work on another collection of poems which takes the sonnet’s volta, or turn, as a formal principle guiding the construction of contemplative free verse. A past recipient of the Grolier Poetry Prize and the Word Press First Book Prize, she has published poems in The Atlantic Monthly, Poetry, TriQuarterly, Ploughshares, and other publications. She has also been awarded fellowships and residencies from the Illinois Arts Council, the Ragdale Foundation, the Ucross Foundation, Poetry magazine, and the Institute for the Humanities at UIC. In her criticism and teaching, she pays particular attention to the ways in which the senses of sound and sight inflect poetry: the areas of prosody, imagery, and the broader relationship between the verbal and visual arts.
