In Wolf Doctors, Russ Woods' first full-length collection of poetry, we find cities that have transformed into girls, but who perhaps would like to transform back once again into cities. We find lovers in a forehead-shaped grove, next to a forehead-shaped lake, touching their foreheads together, endlessly. We find rampaging herds of bulls that desperately love that which they trample to death.
Russ Woods lives in Chicago. He is the author of nine chapbooks, most recently Warm Morning (The New Megaphone, 2014). His poetry and collaborations have been published in magazines like Diagram, The Denver Quarterly, Gulf Coast, Guernica, Pank, Barrelhouse, Dusie, Sixth Finch, and Columbia Poetry Review.
