Description
The Wild Iris was written during a ten-week period in the summer of 1991. Louise Cluck's first four collections consistently returned to the natural world, to the classical and biblical narratives that arose to explain the phenomena of this world, to provide meaning and to console. Ararat, her fifth book, offered a substitution for the received: a demotic, particularized myth of contemporary family. Now in The Wild Iris, her most important and accomplished...

"David Orr provides a riveting tour of poetry as it actually exists today. Orr argues that readers should accept the foreignness of poetry in the way that they accept the strangeness of any place to which they haven't traveled--they should expect a little confusion, at least at first. Yet in the same way that we can, over time, learn to appreciate the idiosyncratic delights of, for instance, Belgium, we can learn to be comfortable with the odd pleasures...

What were you to me? More than you'll ever know!
In life you were the man for all seasons,
From whom I sought the guiding light of reason,
The dearest friend that never needed my amends,
The older brother who guided me like no other,
You who opened a door through which I walked,
But never alone, for you were on the other side, too.
Yes, you were more to me than you'll ever know,
Yes, you are more to me than you'll ever know.
And it's thanks...

Savour my words and taste each letter,
Taste the insanity journey you will indulge.
I hope my words burn through you,
Scatter your mind and allow you to see that everything you believed in was false,
Your eyes slowly falling as...
