Scott Hightower has Marianne Moores scissors and Elizabeth Bishops spectacles, and he has written a book in the spirit of their adventurous precisions.J. D. McClatchy, Nothing is off limits to Hightower, nor does anything seem out of place. If his tone is sometimes light, it is also smart and brave...A fine addition to contemporary poetry collections. Library Journal Product Description Natural Trouble continues Scott Hightowers investigation begun in Tin Can Tourist . Themes of inheritance extend through changes of landscape and bad weather to hungers, urgencies, inequities, and bereavements. Hightower also reminds us that the practice of writing is at the core of democracy: poetry seeks a foundation in the truth of the individual, guaranteed and restored through the integrity of language.

Library Journal From the Inside Flap "Truly a cabinet of curiosities, each poem a collage of surprising or remembered details, opening onto further marvels. The effect is vertiginousand exhilarating. Scott Hightower has Marianne Moore's scissors and Elizabeth Bishop's spectacles, and he has written a book in the spirit of their adventurous precisions."J. D. McClatchy. "The ambition of Hightower's latest book is huge, nothing short of a Whitmanesque temporalityan acknowledgement of time's exacting price and a desire to transcend it. He finds in art not only a consolation but also an ethical imperative." Yvette Christians. "Elegant and graceful elegies for the beauty of unfamiliar and overlooked landscapes. Natural Trouble weaves the smallest of strandsincluding song, light, and colorinto a compelling tapestry of history, both personal and communal. He makes gorgeous connections between human grief and the healing word."
