Adrienne Rich writes with strength, conviction and immense beauty.
Her poetry, she has said, seeks to create a dialectical relationship
between "the personal, or lyric voice, and the so-called political -
really, the voice of the individual speaking not just to herself, or
to a beloved friend, but to and from a collective, a social realm."

"Rich has captured with subversive wit, compassion, precision, supple
poetics, toughness and yes, opposition and resistance, what life has
been like in the opening years of a new century." -National Book
Critics Circle Award citation
