Blue Rose (Penguin Poets)

A new collection of emotionally rich, issue-oriented poems from an award-winning poet whose work â€œhas long been essential readingâ€ (Jorie Graham)

Â
Carol Muske-Dukes has won acclaim for poetry that marries sophisticated intelligence, emotional resonance, and lyrical intensity.Â The poems in her new collection, Blue Rose, navigate around the idea of the unattainable â€“ the elusive nature of poetry, of knowledge, of the fact that we know so little of the lives of others, of the world in which we live.Â Some poems respond to matters of women, birth, and the struggle for reproductive rights, or to issues like gun control and climate change, while others draw inspiration from the lives of women who persisted outside of convention, in poetry, art, science:Â the painter Paula Modersohn-Becker, the scientist and X-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin, and the Californian poet and writer Ina Coolbrith, the first poet laureate ever appointed in America.Â Â
