The poems in Bat Ode speak to the way we live today and how it feels to occupy such a mongrel, fast-changing, postmodern world. Yet rather than breaking with the linguistic or poetic past, these poems seem to renew it with a fresh vision. Jeredith Merrin's sense of humor, her formal poise, her heart and wit, situate her as one of our most convincing social poets.

The poems in Bat Ode speak to the way we live today and how it feels to occupy such a mongrel, fast-changing, postmodern world. Yet rather than breaking with the linguistic or poetic past, these poems seem to renew and reinvigorate it with a fresh vision. Jeredith Merrin's sense of humor, formal poise, enormous heart, and disarming wit, situate her as one of our most convincing social poets.
Jeredith Merrin is a professor of English at The Ohio State University. She is the author of An Enabling Humility: Marianne Moore, Elizabeth Bishop, and the Uses of Tradition. Her first book of poetry, Shift, was published by the University of Chicago Press.
