Penguin Modern Poets 6 - Maggie Nelson

The Penguin Modern Poets are succinct collectible lovingly-assembled guides to the richness and diversity of contemporary poetry from the UK America and beyond. Every volume brings together representative selections from the work of three poets now writing allowing the seasoned poetry lover and the curious reader alike to encounter our most exciting new voices. Volume 6 Die Deeper into Life features the work of Maggie Nelson and Claudia Rankine the two American poets who in hybrid books bridging the divide between poetry lyric prose life-writing and theory such as Bluets The Argonauts Don't Let Me Be Lonely and Citizen have transformed the literary landscape over the last 15 years alongside that of Denise Riley who for decades has been exploring closely related concerns - motherhood; identity and oppression; loss; the language and words that build or assault our selves - as one of the best-kept secrets of British poetry now fittingly recognized by a string of shortlistings and awards. These are writers who combine deep thought with deep feeling to illuminate our world how we suffer in it how we resist it and how we can live with and love it.
