Jennifer Moxley was born in 1964 and grew up in San Diego, California. She edited The Impercipient magazine and with her partner, Steve Evans, The Impercipient Lecture Series. Since 1997, she has served as poetry editor for The Baffler magazine. In addition to her US, Canadian, and British publications, her poetry has been translated into Norwegian, Czech, Swedish and French. She lives in Orono, Maine where she works as an Assistant Professor at the University of Maine.

This is a moving & accomplished real book of lyric poetry, the kind of work that comes around very rarely. That is, the contemporary American poetry scene is highly energized, there is a lot of talent out there, but rarely does a poet bring it all together in one volume as stirringly as Moxley has. It’s extraordinary.
