Poetry.Winner of the 2015 Cider Press Review Book Award. "The elegiac is a most tender and yet most rigorous accounting. Every detail of its fact and decorum must register upon flesh, upon the syllables of flesh. In WORK BY BLOODLIGHT, Bouwsma unfailingly discovers the higher registers and the keenest syllables. They beautifully prove to be a 'wingspan against snow.'"--Donald Revell
