Driving The Back Road Home

For many years now I have enjoyed and admired the poetry of Lowell Jaeger. It reminds us gently, but with a moral and humane undercurrent, to 'put by all this / important nonsense and appreciate the small details of our lives,' to see them transformed as he does. Lowell Jaeger writes with a craft, clarity, and subtle intensity that has 'my battered earth/singing in tongues.' -- Christopher Buckley poet, author of Back Room at the Philosopher's Club
