A new collection of poetry from one of our most renowned contemporary poets, Pulitzer Prize winner Jorie Graham. In her formidable and clairvoyant new collection, Runaway, Jorie Graham deepens her vision of our futurity. What of us will survive? Identity may be precarious, but perhaps love is not? Keeping pace with the desperate runaway of climate change, social disruption, our new mass migrations, she struggles to reimagine a habitable present - a now - in which we might endure, wary, undaunted, ever-inventive, ' counting silently towards infinity' . Graham' s essential voice guides us fluently ' as we pass here now into the next-on world' , what future we have surging powerfully through these pages, where the poet implores us ' to the last be human' .
A mesmerising American voice; one wants to hear its continuation' - The New Yorker; ' We should be grateful to Jorie Graham for her own heroics of perception, even if they show up our ordinary insight. ' - Gwyneth Lewis, Times Literary Supplement
Jorie Graham is the author of fourteen collections of poems. Her poetry has been widely translated and has been the recipient of numerous awards, among them the Pulitzer Prize, the Forward Prize (UK), the Los Angeles Times Book Award, the International Nonino Prize, and the Rebekah Johnson Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry from the Library of Congress. She lives in Massachusetts and teaches at Harvard University.
