Biographie de l'auteur

Rae Marie Bruce started writing poetry with her creative writing students. She admits that she learned from both her and their mistakes and from studying model poems with them. Then she started taking summer courses at the University of New Hampshire with the poet Mekeel McBride. In 1996, The New England Association of Teachers of English (NEATE) named her poet of the year. While working at her local high school, she helped found a writing center, wrote a two semester creative writing curriculum, and taught American literature and creative writing. She has a B. A. from the University of New Hampshire, an M.A. in literature and writing from Rivier College, and an M.F.A. from Vermont College. Bruce has had more than forty poems published in several anthologies and journals as Touchstone, NEATE'S The Leaflet, Southern New Hampshire University Journal, Compass Rose, and The Spoon River Poetry Journal.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This Glorious Disorder teems with New England energy, seasons, and characters. The poet uses embellished family stories to create poems depicting the idiosyncrasies of late relatives. Now these people come alive on the pages of this book as they experience both the joys and sorrows of life. In addition, the poet has included a section about her response to various forms of art and even revealed the process of her own painting with pastels. In this book, the quiet moments, the triumphs, and the vicissitudes of human life tumble together, revealing life's glorious disorder of life. The anticipation of a great delight to come completes the collection on a note of optimism.
