Part springtime journal (“why are there thorns?”), Works and
Days meditates on the first wasps and chipmunks of the season,
times’ passage, grackle hearts, and dandelions, while also
collecting dozens of poems considering the Catholic Church, Sir
Thomas Browne, “Go Away” welcome mats, books, floods (“never
of dollar money”), the invention of words, local politics,
friendships, property development, dogs, and Hesiod. Every page
delights. As the poet herself notes: “My name is Bernadette
Mayer, sometimes / I am at the head of my class.”
