New York: Harper Collins, (1995.) dj. Hardcover first edition - The author's first book, a collection of essays, several dealing with aspects of life in Los Angeles. From the dust jacket: "An utterly original mix of memoir, astute social observation, and bravura nature writing... Casting a keen and knowing eye on a variety of life's conditions, Lowe takes readers on her minutely observed journeys. Whether she's recounting the natural history of the pigeon or her stint as drummer for The Love Machine, an all-lesbian garage band, her gorgeous, unstintingly honest voice finds the universal in the particular, the sacred in the mundane." 179 pp. ISBN: 0-06-0190531.
