Vita Nova
Since, 1990, Louise Gl ck has been exploring a form that is, according to poet Robert Hass, her invention. Vita Nova is a book that exists in the long moment of spring, a book of deaths and beginnings, resignation and hope, brutal, luminous, and farseeing. Vita Nova -- like its immediate predecessors, a book-length sequence -- combines the ecstatic utterance of The Wild Iris with the worldly dramas elaborated in Meadowlands.
By turns stern interlocutor and ardent novitiate, Gl ck compasses the essential human paradox, a terrifying act of perspective that brings into resolution the smallest human hope and the vast forces that shape and thwart Like late Yeats, Vita Nova dares large statement.
