“Jen Silverman’s poems are baptisms of desire. They’ve traveled the world and come back to tell you the pleasure to be found there, the holes of each leaving, the way it is all ‘drenched in light and wine.’ Economical in syntax and generous in image, Bath astonishes at every turn with its heart, its wisdom, its waters.”
 
– Traci Brimhall, author of our lady of the ruins
 
 
“I have a crush on Jen Silverman’s language. This multi-hyphenate wordsmith writes poetry that sings with silver fish scales, bathes in love, hopes for redemption. I’ll read with ardor anything Silverman writes, in any genre.”
 
– Sarah Ruhl, playwright of Eurydice
 
 
“Jen Silverman’s Bath moves through you like 'a weather system/ of love.' In its wake, you will rise from the storm cellar of these poems, squint at the sun, and marvel at how fresh the air seems and how it buzzes with hope.”
 
– Tomás Q. Morín, author of Machete
