Finding a Drawer Full of Drivers’ Licenses

Jennifer L. Knox is the author of four books of poems. The New York Times Book Review said her latest book, Days of Shame and Failure, “hits, with deceptive ease, all the poetic marks a reader could want: intellectual curiosity, emotional impact, beautiful language, surprising revelation and arresting imagery.” Her nonfiction writing has recently appeared in the Washington Post and the American Poetry Review. Her next book of poems, Crushing It, will be published by Copper Canyon.
