The Penguin Modern Poets are succinct, collectible,
lovingly-assembled guides to the richness and diversity of
contemporary poetry, from the UK, America and beyond. Every volume
brings together representative selections from the work of three
poets now writing, allowing the seasoned poetry lover and the
curious reader alike to encounter our most exciting new voices.
Volume 6, Die Deeper into Life, features the work of Maggie Nelson
and Claudia Rankine, the two American poets who, in hybrid books
bridging the divide between poetry, lyric prose, life-writing and
theory such as Bluets, The Argonauts, Don't Let Me Be Lonely and
Citizen, have transformed the literary landscape over the last 15
years, alongside that of Denise Riley, who for decades has been
exploring closely related concerns - motherhood; identity and
oppression; loss; the language and words that build, or assault,
our selves - as one of the best-kept secrets of British poetry, now
fittingly recognized by a string of shortlistings and awards. These
are writers who combine deep thought with deep feeling to
illuminate our world, how we suffer in it, how we resist it, and
how we can live with and love it.
