The poetry collection "Later Poems Selected and New" by Adrienne Rich highlights the dynamic journey of the work of one of the most distinguished artists in American literature. After her death, Rich left a manuscript expressing her concern for a poetics of relation, accompanied by a passionate attention to the art of poetic creation. In addition to selected poems from dozens of published collective works, the collection includes ten new, powerful poems. Among them, "From Strata" forms an archaeology of the contemporary world, "Itinerary" seeks an "indefinite future" in a threatened landscape, "For the Young Anarchists" offers a glimpse of craftsmanship as political action, and the haunting voice of "Teethsucking Bird" reminds us of what we have forgotten. These and other poems look back at history and forward to the future, engaging with contemporary circumstances. Rich's unique command of language continues to the end.
