Points in the network, a new poetry book out on October 16th, 2025!
“In Gabrielle Myers’ lyrical new book, ‘Points in the Network,’ her pristine attention to nature is backgrounded by life's vicissitudes. But there is no self-pity here or navel-gazing. These are poems that celebrate the intensity of observation, the aspect of blooming and renewal that takes place without our intervention but is noticed by her loving, nurturing gaze. Read this book for its brave voice and delicate witnessing.” Maxine Chernoff, awarded the Carl Sandburg Award in Poetry
"I have found in this work that if one has the courage to follow the imperative “Break Self,” then one may find so much that is freed, and so much that will feed the psyche and soul." Rusty Morrison
"The poems in Break Self: Feed will delight and crush you. Myers's ability to combine the themes of rebirth and growth with environmental issues is refreshing and allows space for readers to enter her world together." Anna Vaughn, Mid-American Review

“Gabrielle Myers does not shy away from a kind of post-mod naturalism, where we can taste things, see things, and even – I dare say – touch their ‘opalescent crisp skin.’ Although world-stuff and social-stuff shifts and is disassembled in the scenic constructions of her poetics, she manages a lush 21st century personal pointillism. Most lovely, most alluring.” Juan Felipe Herrera
"Impressively written from beginning to end, Gabrielle Myers' Hive-Mind: A Memoir is a compelling and inherently fascinating read that is very highly recommended..." Midwest Book Review
