Australian-born Katrin Talbot’s collection The Devil Orders a Latte was just released from Fernwood Press. Falling Asleep at the Circus (Turning Point Books, 2024) and The Waiting Room for the Imperfect Alibis (Kelsay Books, 2022) are her other full-length collections. She has seven chapbooks, two Pushcart Prize nominations, and quite a few chickens.
Ms. Talbot is also a violist and photographer, and her coffee table book, Schubert’s Winterreise-A Winter Journey in Poetry, Image, and Song, was published by the University of Wisconsin Press in 2003. She plays in the viola section of the Madison Symphony Orchestra and often the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, and there is much music in her poetry as a result of this.
