Bauer's newest collection is an exploration of time: how we perceive it and its passing, how we use language to describe the lived experience that time informs, and the transformations we undergo during its passing.
Grace Bauer's MEAN/TIME crackles with intelligence and heart. Reading this book is fuel for anyone's imagination. It does what poetry can do--it takes your mind where it hasn't gone before.'--Dara Wier, author of You Good Thing
In MEAN/TIME truth and its necessary consolations grace our lives as we go about 'maintaining / the sacred by performing the mundane.''--Michael Waters, author of Celestial Joyride
Grace Bauer is a poet at the height of her powers. The landscape of American poetry is brightened considerably by the verve of MEAN/TIME.'--Marilyn Kallet, author of The Love That Moves Me
