Synopsis

In her book Autoethnogaphy Bridget Kriner writes about sacrifice, manifestation of birds, what it means to be a woman. But also, and it seems moreso, hers is a book about change: "You can let go. Sweep the rest of it off the floor and start again from a seed. Rules are rules, after all. No matter what, everything always becomes something else." ---from 'Elegy for a Houseplant' "Just the other day, when I was falling for you, it was not unlike driving at 100mph through a resplendent mountain highway, sprinkled neatly with the promise of Fall, thinking soon this too will change." ---from 'Chasm' She is a straight-talker, but this does not mean her sentences and phrasing aren't still-wet, alive, and breathing. The poems have their own scents and magnitudes. I believe this is because she writes while very much piqued; in touch with her own life. And Bridget Kriner's point of view is valuable because it is all of that and no more than that--her own.
