Object Lessons: The Life of the Woman and the Poet in Our Time | Eavan Boland

1 post | 1 read | 1 reading | 1 to read

In this important prose work, one of our major poets explores, through autobiography and argument, a woman's life in Ireland together with a poet's work. Eavan Boland beautifully uncovers the powerful drama of how these lives affect one another; how the tradition of womanhood and the historic vocation of the poet act as revealing illuminations of the other.

Object Lessons: The Life of the Woman and the Poet in Our Time | Eavan Boland

I've been in a weird headspace today, so I asked the Beard to recommend a book of poetry for me, thinking a change of pace from my usual novel-reading would do me good (and that we could put his English degree to good use...). He came back with this memoir-in-essays-about-poetry, which is not poetry but possibly even better. What do you read on those strange, unsettled kinds of days??
