Lyn Hejinian is among the most prominent of contemporary American
poets. Her poem My Life has garnered accolades and fans inside and
outside academia. First published in 1980, and revised in 1987 and
2002, My Life is now firmly established in the postmodern canon.
This Wesleyan edition includes the 45-part prose poem sequence
along with a closely related ten-part work titled My Life in the
Nineties. An experimental intervention into the autobiographical
genre, My Life explores the many ways in which language--the things
people say and the ways they say them--shapes not only their
identity, but also the very world around them.
