“In Gabrielle Myers’ lyrical new book, ‘Points in the Network,’ her pristine attention to nature is backgrounded by life’s vicissitudes. But there is no self-pity here or navel-gazing. These are poems that celebrate the intensity of observation, the aspect of blooming and renewal that takes place without our intervention but is noticed by her loving, nurturing gaze. Read this book for its brave voice and delicate witnessing.”

–Maxine Chernoff, awarded the Carl Sandburg Award in Poetry, and author of Here (Counterpath, 2014); Without (Shearsman, 2012); and To Be Read in the Dark (Omnidawn, 2011), and many, many more.

 

“In these alliterative and crackling poems, Gabrielle Myers is alive to the bonanza of the natural world in all of its beneficent and imperiled beauty. In an apt, engaging way, Points in the Network, her third volume, reminds the alert reader that habitats and landscapes vividly and succinctly rendered in verse can also serve as viable cinema verité and soulful, revealing self-portraiture.”

–Cyrus Cassells, author of Is There Room for Another Horse on Your Horse Ranch?

 

“Points in the Network reaffirms the luminous threads that connect us all across time, place, species, and memory. With great courage and curiosity, Myers sings the microscopic joys and struggles of everyday life from skylines, farms and valleys all the way back to her origins. And I am grateful for the way her poems impart a vision of wholeness and possibility without shying away from the shadows, reminding us that, ‘We have never been alone in this world.’”

–Patricia Killelea, author of Counterglow

Points in the Network speaks on what it means to be human and experience the complex feelings we do while simultaneously being in intimate connection with nematodes, growing grass blades, and decomposing leaf litter left to rot and fertilize our soils. The poems take an urban dive into the ecopoetic in a seasonal ride through childhood’s possibility, social injustice, love loss and gain, sex and its meaning, homelessness, death at our own hands and through life’s wear, and the ever-springing hope that pumps from our veins as we wake up to what the microbes have to say.
