The Women at the Well<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cBauer gives voices, personalities, and motivations to women whose voices have been silenced and forgotten and denied. She gives these women their own bodies, their own histories, showing us how much they resemble us and we resemble them.\u201d -Alicia Suskin Ostriker<\/p>\r\n

NOWHERE ALL AT ONCE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cIt\u2019s against drabness that Bauer powerfully writes. Her casually precise poems\u2014all motion and meditation, praise and agitation\u2014do the double work of looking outward to transform the inner life, and looking inward to remind us of the superb texture of the world.\u201d \u00a0-Daisy Fried<\/p>\r\n

Retreats and Recognitions<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cAll the strong poems in Retreats & Recognitions <\/em>are grounded in the reality of detail, though Bauer is smart enough to realize how often the real mimics the surreal . . . Retreats & Recognitions <\/em>is a book where memory and imagination converge.” -Jesse Lee Kercheval<\/p>\r\n

Nasty Women Poets
An Unapologetic Anthology of Subversive Verse<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

“This timely collection of poems speaks not just to the current political climate and the man who is responsible for its title, but to the stereotypes and expectations women have faced dating back to Eve . . The nasty women poets included here . . . sing, swear, swagger and celebrate, and stake claim to life and art on their own terms.\u201d -Lost Horse Press<\/p>\r\n
