With all the power of a long-brewing storm, the brilliant poet Jenny Factor finally returns to make public the interior work and spoils of decades in Want, The Lake, her second poetry collection.
This book of fifty-two poems spans twenty years of life—accumulated wisdom, images, and desires—with a dedication to craft that has been honed and clarified by time.
Jenny Factor is an archaeologist of object and mind, a feminist, a mother, and a dog-lover. An inhabitant of doubled geographies, Jenny helps to organize the monthly Caltech Poetry Lunch while studying 18-century women’s poetry networks at Brandeis University. Her first collection, Unraveling at the Name, won the Hayden Carruth Award and was a Lambda Literary Award Finalist. Factor’s writing has appeared in more than a dozen anthologies, including Poetry 180, The Best American Erotic Poems, Prairie Schooner, the Gay & Lesbian Review, and the Paris Review. Her work has been supported by an Astraea Grant in poetry and acknowledged with a Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg honorable mention. Jenny lectures Poetry at Caltech and is the former core faculty member in Poetry at the MFA in Creative Writing program at Antioch University. She divides her time between Pasadena, CA and Marblehead, MA.
