In her seventh volume of poetry, considered to be one of her masterworks, Adrienne Rich searches to reclaim--to discover--what has been forgotten, lost, or unexplored: "I came to explore the wreck. / The words are purposes. / The words are maps. / I came to see the damage that was done / and the treasures that prevail." The wreck is, of course, the recesses of the mind itself, and these provocative poems move with all the power of Rich's unsurpassed, utterly distinctive voice.--Back cover.
