"The first new collection since Evolution from the prolific poet, activist, and writer Eileen Myles, 'A Working Life' ... captures the measure of life. Whether alone or in a relationship, on city sidewalks or in the country, their lyrics always engage with permanence and mortality, danger and safety, fear and wonder.
