Tell me, pleads the speaker in the opening lines of Poem for Virginia in Ecstasy. Tell me all about it. That consuming curiosity is emblematic of this anticipated debut collection, which investigates, interrogates, and animates its subjects with a strong mix of empathy and imagination. Whether depicting The Wild Boy of Aveyron's introduction to high society (a failed formal dinner arranged by his doctor), Nijinsky's autopsy (his feet are opened in search of a mechanism that would explain his genius), or the actress Sean Young's turn as Isadora Duncan in a Russian ballet (she is adored), these poems want to know more, to see beneath the costume to the essence of the individual. A measured polemic against quantifiable knowledge and scientific truth, At the Autopsy of Vaslav Nijinsky celebrates its subjects' differences--which is to say their genius--by laying them bare.

I don't have the words to do this book justice. Sometimes when I get lucky I come across a poet that makes me feel not as alone in the world. So many of Ms. Lowe's poems move me, and remind me that the things that I cannot quite understand, wonder about, or feel, others do as well. Her poems reminiscent in the best way of some of Anne Sexton's work. The poems are true, and some phrases will stay with me forever.Product details
