L2L Louise Glück

The First Four Books of Poems (and beyond)

Louise Glück

Lyricism and romanticism — sometimes with a darker edge — mark the poems of Nobel laureate Louise Glück. The New York native is the author of twelve books of poetry, including her most recent (published just last month) titled Winter Recipes from the Collective. Her works are precisely worded and intensely personal, and this week Leigh, P. T., and Dr. C explore how Glück’s life and poetry create strong and lasting images.
