Take a Rib

The Arc of a Life in Poems

Beschreibung

Take a Rib, The Arc of a Life in Poems In this timeline and collection, Diane Lilli returns to the poems of her youth, with transformative imagery that tracks her lifetime of writing poems, landing in 2025. Beginning with her first poem written at eight years of age, the author continues to share a real-time body of work from different moments of her life, as a fantastical, poetic memoir. Every poem is organized in chronological order and separated by distinct phases of her life. Take a Rib is a wild ride through the stages of life as seen through the lines of a poet, from the freedom of surreal literary beginnings to the bittersweet world as it changes for everyone. "Saying goodbye again," she writes, "I remind you, the most beautiful gardens grow inside fences."
