i just had a really. really sweet conversation about louise gl/ck with one of her old students and. i feel so insane now. cried! of course she's a person who wrote letters and had feelings about how people perceived her, but i'm deleting everything i write because it feels too tender to say anything about someone i only loved through her work. which is still a big love that makes for a big grief.

I did not expect to survive, earth suppressing me. I didn’t expect to waken again, to feel in damp earth my body able to respond again, remembering after so long how to open again in the cold light of earliest spring—

Do you know what I was, how I lived? You know what despair is; then winter should have meaning for you.

Do you know any books that explore the concept of girlhood?

I think Louise Glück’s Averno, Katherine Mansfield’s The Garden Party and Other Stories, Simone de Beauvoir’s Memories of a Dutiful Daughter, Marguerite Duras’ The Lover and The Ravishing of Lol Stein, Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye, Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, Donna Tartt’s The Little Friend, Shirley Jackson’s We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Daphné du Maurier’s Rebecca, M. L. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables & Emily of the New Moon, Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women could be of interest to you. There’s something to be extracted too in Thomas Hardy’s Tess of d’Urbervilles, Margaret Atwood’s Alias Grace or Arthur Miller’s The Crucible. But be aware that most of these are violent iterations—the wrenching out of girlhood, rather.

Hey, can I ask what your favorite book is by Louise Glück?

hi :) i never thought about it, i don’t like to rank books or maybe i like to think that we read the books we need at a particular time in our lives. i am enjoying her poem collection 1962 - 2012 very much at the moment. it feels like the right amount of lightness and deep diving into my head and my heart to make me want to enjoy living and letting go of my constant need of control. i am sorry if that is not the answer you are looking for

by Louise Gl?ck

   Synopsis : Winner of the 2014 National Book Award for PoetryA luminous, seductive new collection from the "fearless" (The New York Times) Pulitzer Prize-winning poetLouise Gl?ck is one of the finest American poets at work today. Her Poems 1962-2012 was hailed as "a major event in this country's literature" in the pages of The New York Times. Every new collection is at once a deepening and a revelation. Faithful and Virtuous Night is no exception. You enter the world of this spellbinding book through one of its many dreamlike portals, and each time you enter it's the same place but it has been arranged differently. You were a woman. You were a man. This is a story of adventure, an encounter with the unknown, a knight's undaunted journey into the kingdom of death; this is a story of the world you've always known, that first primer where "on page three a dog appeared, on page five a ball" and every familiar facet has been made to shimmer like the contours of a dream, "the dog float[ing] into the
