\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Through more than a dozen collections, C.D. Wright pushed the bounds of imagination as she explored desire, loss and physical sensation. Her posthumously published book, \u003cI\u003eShallCross\u003c/I\u003e features seven poem sequences that show her tremendous range in style and approach. As she considers, among other topics, some dark intuitions about human nature, she also nudges readers to question who is telling the story and where one\u0026#8217;s thought can lead.\"\u0026#151;\u003cI\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c/I\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Wright gets better with each book, expanding the reach of her art; it seems it could take in anything.\"\u0026#151;\u003cI\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c/I\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Wright belongs to a school of exactly one.\"\u0026#151;\u003cI\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c/I\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"C.D. Wright is entirely her own poet, a true original.\"\u0026#151;\u003cI\u003eThe Gettysburg Review\u003c/I\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a turbulent world, C.D. Wright evokes a rebellious and dissonant ethos with characteristic genre-bending and expanding long-form poems. Accessing journalistic writing alongside filmic narratives, Wright ranges across seven poetic sequences, including a collaborative suite responding to photographic documentation of murder sites in New Orleans. \u003cI\u003eShallCross \u003c/I\u003eshows plain as day that C.D. Wright is our most thrilling and innovative poet.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cB\u003eFrom \"Obscurity and Elegance\":\u003c/B\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cI\u003eWhether or not the park was safe\u003cbr\u003eshe was going in.

Wright \u003c/B\u003e(1949-2016) taught at Brown University for decades and published over a dozen works of poetry and prose, including \u003cI\u003eOne With Others,\u003c/I\u003e which won the National Book Critics Circle Award and was nominated for a National Book Award; \u003cI\u003eOne Big Self: An Investigation;\u003c/I\u003e and \u003cI\u003eRising Falling Hovering\u003c/I\u003e. Among her many honors are the Griffin International Poetry Prize and a MacArthur Fellowship.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cBR\u003e\u003c/div\u003e |
