Mari-Lou Rowley
Mari-Lou Rowley's latest collections of poetry Interference with the Hydrangea from Thistledown Press (2003) and Viral Suite from Anvil Press (2004) have both received critical acclaim. Mari-Lou lives in Vancouver, where she works as a science and corporate writer, facilitates corporate-cultural partnerships, and "walks the line between language and lyric." "Mari-Lou Rowley slows the line down so you can hear the syllabic compliments, the weight of heavy blossoms..." "Rowley pulls us into a teaming world of biological and physical processes, where thought and emotion are physics and chemistry, and the subatomic world a model of spiritual grace." "Mari-Lou Rowley blends mental discipline with esthetic intuition in works that resonate with a sharply defined sensitivity to language, feeling and spirit." — Paul Dutton "Mari-Lou Rowley takes us down a homeo path of scientific and poetic lyric in an amazement of molecular dance through the lush genetics of life on the move. Very contagious stuff." — Fred Wah
