About My Second Work:

"No poet writing today is more direct than Bridget Lowe: at the same time, no poet is more uncanny, more seductively strange. These poems love the world that does not always love them back. They're brilliant, scary, and heartbreakingly alive."
—James Longenbach

"There's a modern irony and rue to Lowe's poetry, a tinge of the surreal, even a suggestion of the horroristic, that makes it wholly contemporary."
—Dana Levin
