Book Club----The Wild Iris

Next book club,we choose 2020 Nobel Prize in Literature winner Louise Glück's poetry The Wild Iris and she also won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in terms of it.

This poetry was published in 1992. It is a stunningly beautiful collection of poems that encompasses the natural, human, and spiritual realms,and is bound together by the universal themes of time and mortality and with clarity and sureness of craft, Louise Glück's poetry questions, explores, and finally celebrates the ordeal of being alive.

Helen Vendler, A. Kingsley Porter University Professor at Harvard University, wrote on The New Republic :

"Louise Gluck is a poet of strong and haunting presence. Her poems, published in a series of memorable books over the last twenty years, have achieved the unusual distinction of being neither 'confessional' nor 'intellectual' in the usual senses of those words, which are often thought to represent two camps in the life of poetry. . . . What a strange book The Wild Iris is, appearing in this fin-de-siecle, written in the language of flowers. It Is a lieder cycle, with all the mournful cadences of that form."
