Bold Type's Poetry Editor Ernest Hilbert writes on Scheck: "Laurie Sheck's poems shimmer and stream like mercury. A past finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, her poems have appeared in The New Yorker and The Boston Review. Her latest book, Black Series, gently suggests the influences of both Jorie Graham and Louise Glück, enlarging on the poems of those now celebrated predecessors as well as Greek myths in an entirely unique manner."
