C.D. Wright: 'Rising, Falling, Hovering'
Deeply personal and politically ferocious, "Rising, Falling, Hovering" addresses, as Wright has said elsewhere, "the commonly felt crises of [our] times"-from illegal immigration and the specific consequences of empire to the challenges of parenting and the honesty required of human relationships. C.D. Wright is the author of more than a dozen collections of poetry and prose. Among many honors, she is a recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship in 2004, and the Robert Creeley Prize in 2005.
