To date, no book-length study of the work of poet Jorie Graham has
been published. Graham now holds the prestigious Boylston
Professorship of Rhetoric and Oratory at Harvard University;
recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship and a Pulitzer Prize, Graham
has established herself as one of the most important poets of her
generation. This book addresses the connection between Graham's
work and the legacy of American Modernism, arguing that her
recurring interest in the visible world and how best to represent
it in her poetry can be seen as a continuation of the work of Eliot
and Stevens. For Graham, the visible world is a means of
approaching the ineffable, or the divine. The poet's approach to
the ineffable in her work is conflated at times with the
relationship between the self and the other: maintaining the
integrity of both and accurately representing the truth of what she
sees become a moral project for the poet, aligning her work with
that of the Moderns. The book addresses Graham's entire body of
work, now nine books of poetry, and interprets her poetic
preoccupation with visuality through the lens of psychoanalytic
criticism.
