The result is a judiciously edited, sensibly annotated volume ideally suited for study. In both poetry & prose, the editors have chosen selections which give readers a clear sense of Rich's evolution & accomplishment. Many of the poems in this expanded collection are from Rich's 5 recent volumes: The Dream of a Common Language (1978), A Wild Patience Has Taken Me This Far (1981), Your Native Land, Your Life (1986), Time's Power: Poems 1985-1988 (1989) & An Atlas of the Difficult World (1991). Prose selections include "When We Dead Awaken: Writing as Re-Vision", Rich's canonical statement on feminism; "Compulsory Heterosexuality & Lesbian Existence"; Rich's interview for American Poetry Review, which presents a full & frank discussion of her work; & her previously unpublished commentary on the genesis of the poem "Yom Kippur" (1984). The editors have taken into account the many essays on Rich & reviews of her work that have been published since 1975. Some earlier biographical selections have been replaced w/ works that focus on the quality of Rich's writing & her place in 20th-century American literature, not just as a poet, but as a woman, a lesbian, & a mother. Criticism includes 13 reviews & interpretations of Rich's work by W.H. Auden, John Ashbery, Helen Vendler, Margaret Atwood, Judith McDaniel, Adrian Oktenberg, Charles Altieri, & others. A 2nd recent study by Albert Gelpi traces the events in Rich's life from which her work evolves. An updated Chronology & Selected Bibliography, as well as an expanded Index, are included. * ABOUT ADRIENNE RICH: Widely read, widely anthologized, widely interviewed & widely taught, Adrienne Rich (1929-2012) was for decades among the most influential writers of the feminist movement & one of the best-known American public intellectuals. She wrote 24 volumes of poetry & 7 volumes of prose. Her constellation of honors includes 2 National Book Awards, a MacArthur Foundation "genius" grant & a Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters by the National Book Foundation. Ms. Rich's volumes of poetry include The Dream of a Common Language, A Wild Patience Has Taken Me This Far, An Atlas of the Difficult World, The School Among the Ruins, & Telephone Ringing in the Labyrinth. Her prose includes the essay collections On Lies, Secrets, & Silence; Blood, Bread, & Poetry; an influential essay, Compulsory Heterosexuality & Lesbian Existence, & the nonfiction book Of Woman Born, which examines the institution of motherhood as a socio-historic construct. In 2010, she was honored w/ The Griffin Trust for Excellence in Poetry's Lifetime Recognition Award. * ABOUT THE EDITORS: BARBARA CHARLESWORTH GELPI is Professor of English at Stanford University, where she has taught since 1968.
