Place New Poems by JorieGraham Paperback, 96 Pages, Published 2012 by Ecco ISBN-13: 978-0-06-219064-2, ISBN: 0-06-219064-4
" In Place, Graham explores the ways in which our imagination, intuition, and experience—increasingly devalued by a culture that regards them as "mere" subjectivity—aid us in navigating a world moving blindly towards its own annihilation and a political reality where the human person and its dignity are increasingly disposable. Throughout, Graham seeks out sites of wakeful resistance and achieved presence. From the natural world to human ..."
Sea Change(1st Edition) Poems by JorieGraham Paperback, 80 Pages, Published 2009 by Ecco Bargain Price ISBN-13: 978-0-06-153718-9, ISBN: 0-06-153718-7
" The New York Times has said that "Jorie Graham's poetry is among the most sensuously embodied and imaginative writing we have," and this new collection is a reminder of how startling, original, and deeply relevant her poetry is. In Sea Change, Graham brings us to the once-unimaginable threshold at which civilization as we know it becomes unsustainable. How might the human spirit persist, caught between its abiding love of beauty, its a ..."

Hybrids of Plants and of Ghosts(1st Edition) (Princeton Series of Contemporary Poets) by JorieGraham, Susan Stewart Paperback, 80 Pages, Published 1980 by Princeton University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-691-01335-0, ISBN: 0-691-01335-7
""How I would like to catch the world / at pure idea," writes Jorie Graham, for whom a bird may be an alphabet, and flight an arc. Whatever the occasion--and her work offers a rich profusion of them--the poems reach to where possession is not within us, where new names are needed and meaning enlarged. Hence, what she sees reminds her of what is missing, and what she knows suggests what she cannot. From any event, she arcs bravely into th ..."
Swarm(Reprint) by JorieGraham Paperback, 132 Pages, Published 2001 by Ecco Bargain Price ISBN-13: 978-0-06-093509-2, ISBN: 0-06-093509-X
"A contrary poet friend once opined: there are people who don't get Jorie Graham, and then there are people who pretend that they do. Swarm finds the Pulitzer Prize winner operating at more than her usual level of opacity. Bumps and jumps, bizarre spacing, a certain fascination with center justification--this is poetry that sits as uneasily on the page as it does in the reader's mind. Not that there aren't moments of arresting lyricism ..."

"What does it mean to be fully present in a human life? How -- in the face of the carnage of war, the no longer merely threatened destruction of the natural world, the faceless threat of spiritual oversimplification and reactive fear -- does one retain one's capacity to be both present and responsive? And to what extent does our capacity to be present, to be fully ourselves, depend on our relationship to an other and our understanding of ..."

"Jorie Graham's collection of poems, Never, primarily addresses concern over our environment in crisis. One of the most challenging poets writing today, Graham is no easy read, but the rewards are well worth the effort. While thematically present, her concern is not exclusively the demise of natural resources and depletion of species, but the philosophical and perceptual difficulty in capturing and depicting a physical world that may be ..."

"The first new collection of poetry in five years from Pulitzer Prize winner Jorie Graham"Graham's great body of work has more of life and of the world than that of almost any other poet now writing. . . .

It permanently bears her mark." --New York TimesIn her first new ..."

"With Swarm, her first new collection since The Errancy, Pulitzer Prize-winner Jorie Graham has given us a book-length sequence of poems stunning in its sober encounter with destiny, eros, and law. The narrator, at times almost vertigo-ridden by the problem of who is addressed-whom there still is to address-negotiates passionately with those powers human beings feel themselves to be "underneath": God, matter, law, custom, the force of l ..."
