TESTIMONIALS

  • “A brainy, passionate, wildly original book; a primer for surviving, with love and courage, on a threatened planet.”

    —ROSANNA WARREN, author of Hindsight

  • "An Introduction to Error explores how facts align, or misalign, with the heart. . . . Science and soul collide in this dazzling collection."

    — ED SKOOG, author of Travelers Leaving for the City

  • "A work of textural delicacy and tensile strength. Lockwood’s poetic voice has the rigorous grace of scientific methodology coupled with the tenderness and patience to allow each poem to work its own elegant calculus of measure and balance."

    — LAURA DA’, Washington State Book Award winner and author of Severalty

  • "If love were an experiment we could execute in a lab, then these poems would be the notes: clear-eyed, detailed, and, above all else, responsible to their irresistible and intrinsic truth."

    — KEETJE KUIPERS, author of Lonely Women Make Good Lovers
