"Mary Leader's The Wood That Will Be Used is a tour de force exemplifying what results from a lifetime of labor in the word, a lifetime of one's poring over rich literary texts, and of one's developing the habit of one's offering answering texts; it also manifests a capacious mind shaped by wit, by candor, and by a keen eye. Receiving the matter prepared for her, she has shaped a beautiful structure that will serve her and us for the journey beyond. If Philip Larkin and H.D. were to have been blessed with a literary child, that child would be Mary Leader." -Scott Cairns

Mary Leader is from Oklahoma. She is well on the other side of rearing children there, practicing law there, turning late to poetry there, and, at age 49, publishing her first book of poems, Red Signature, a selection in the prestigious National Poetry Series. She also spent years in scattered collegiate settings: Massachusetts, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, Indiana. Now she has moved back to Oklahoma, her vantage point. The majority of her work, meanwhile, has traveled to Great Britain. The Wood That Will be Used is her sixth collection, her fourth from Shearsman Books, whose present location is in Oxfordshire.
