SynopsisAugust 2010, the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, is much in the news media after all these years. "Still what we have mostly missed in all the reporting is the intimacy of a poet's voice who can bring the real right up inside us. Lyn Lifshin's volume of straight forward, exact poetry in KATRINA does this. There is a clear ungarnished force to her words that gives us the chance to bring our own sense of loss, grief and compassion into the lives of those who have been drawn into such an event." - from the Preface. Lyn Lifshin is one of the most important award winning poetic voices of our times published as she is in most literary and poetry magazines. Her poem, NO MORE APOLOGIZING, has been called "among the most impressive documents of the women's poetry movement," by Alicia Ostriker., Poetry. What we have mostly missed in all the reporting is the intimacy of a poet's voice who can bring the real right up inside us. Lyn Lifshin's volume of straightforward, exact poetry in KATRINA does this. There is a clear ungarnished force to her words that gives us the chance to bring our own sense of loss, grief and compassion into the lives of those who have been drawn into such an event.
