Reviews
"Sixty years of wondrous verse from this award-winning but curiously underappreciated poet. Open to any page and you'll stumble on lines you'll never forget: 'The meanest mistake / has a point to make.'" --Dotun Akintoye, Oprah.com "Cements her reputation as a major American poet." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "We read such poets because we want to know how a poetic intelligence inhabits the world--or invents it." --William Logan, The New York Times Book Review

Synopsis
Marie Ponsot's Collected Poems is the stunning lifework of the prizewinning poet, gathered in one volume: the world she has made of life's fire for sixty years. The present celebratory volume covers nearly all of her published work, from True Minds (1956), which was number five in the famous City Lights Pocket Poets series, through the 2009 Easy, her most recent collection; it also includes some new work, written in the years since. Here is the lyrical joy, the full range of Ponsot's gift for constructing the pleasures and pains of a riddle that the music and wit of her language solve just in the nick of time, in the "hand-span skill" that is the poem. In examining the powerful life of women, her poetry is as practical as it is profound. "Go to a wedding / as to a funeral," she advises us. "Bury the loss." (And adds: "Go to a funeral / as to a wedding: / marry the loss.") Notable in this collection is the astonishing accomplishment of Ponsot's sonnets: the traditional form in varieties we've never seen in one book before. Open these pages anywhere to experience "language as the primitive dialect of our human race," as she has described it--to gradually enter a state that is "what poetry hopes of us and for us: enraptured attention.", Born in 1921, Marie Ponsot began her career in 1956 with True Minds, one of the famous Pocket Poets pamphlets published by City Lights. After this auspicious beginning, Ponsot went on to an unconventional career and would not publish again until 1981, when Admit Impediment was published by Knopf. Her reemergence--after raising seven children and always writing, if not actively publishing--brought us a writer of mature wit, unusual rhythms and a poetry of sparkling surface, though her ear is tuned always to the deeper music of human feeling. Ponsot values the local and personal as a proving ground for the grand mysteries, and in examining the powerful underground life of women, her poetry is as practical as it is profound.
