Diving into the Wreck: Poems 1971-1972
Diving into the Wreck: Poems 1971-1972 | Adrienne Rich
10 posts | 13 read | 23 to read
In her seventh volume of poetry, Adrienne Rich searches to reclaimto discoverwhat has been forgotten, lost, or unexplored. "I came to explore the wreck. / The words are purposes. / The words are maps. / I came to see the damage that was done / and the treasures that prevail." These provocative poems move with the power of Rich's distinctive voice.

There is so much to unpack in this slim volume, I expect I‘ll need to read it again to fully take it in all the nuances, but I‘m glad to have a sense of her writing as we continue with her biography in #SundayBuddyRead. #AwesomeApril @TheBookHippie @Andrew65

Discovering Adrienne Rich, her life, and her poetry opened me up to so many women poets: Denise Levertov, Audre Loure, Nikki Giovanni, Louise Gluck, Anne Sexton, Joy Harpo, and so many more.

My February poetry selection is a classic of Feminist poetry from the early 1970s. This is my first time reading Rich. These poems are beautiful and angry.

"Sensuality desiccates in words- risks of the portage, risks of the glacier never taken. . . Emptiness thrust like a batch of letters to the furthest dark of a drawer"
