"Kim Dower's poems speak in the voice of an old, trusted friend who knows you, who has come to visit and remind you of who you are and what a life is all about. They speak not of the highs and lows, but about the grey space between tragedy and tenderness, memory and loss, fragility and perseverance - that space where the soul and the truest self live."
- Richard Blanco, Presidential Inaugural Poet

"Kim Dower's poetry is a kind of miracle ... wild with poetry's particular fever, tempered by a rich inner life, fed by wisdom and knowledge one gets walking up and down upon the earth with all of one's senses fully alert - this fever can turn into art, as it has, in poem after poem."
- Thomas Lux

Coming from Red Hen Press, April 1st, 2019! Sunbathing on Tyrone Power’s Grave "By turns exuberant, sexy and sobering, Kim Dower’s remarkable poems are known for their extraordinary range. This fourth collection finds her at the top of her game. Attuned to the oddness of the quotidian and grounding the metaphysical in the sharp sensations of daily life, the poems in Tyrone Power’s Grave invite us to live as fully and generously as the poet herself.” -Chris Kraus, bestselling author of I LOVE DICK
