Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Celebrating mothers and daughters, mothers and sons, grandmothers and grandchildren, Motherhood is a glorious, wonderfully intimate tribute to the first love in every readers life.From tenth-century Japans Izumi Shikibu, colonial Americas Anne Bradstreet, and Victorian Englands Elizabeth Barrett Browning to Israels Yehuda Amichai, Irelands Paul Muldoon, and Russias Anna Akhmatova, poets across the centuries and around the world have immortalized this elemental relationship. Among the more than seventy poets in this anthology, Audre Lorde recalls How the days went / While you were blooming within me; Jorie Graham muses on her mothers sewing box; Allen Ginsberg says goodbye in Kaddish; and Langston Hughes invokes a mothers empowering example: Dont you fall now / For Ise still goin, honey, / Ise still climbin, / And life for me aint been no crystal stair. From Emily Brontes Upon Her Soothing Breast and Seamus Heaneys Mother of the Groom to Sylvia Plaths Morning Song and Frank OHaras Ave Maria, the more than one hundred poems collected here enshrine the miracle of motherhood and the richness of feeling and experience it inspires. Every poet is a mother's child, and many of the greatest poets have immortalized this elemental relationship. Here are poets as diverse as Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Sylvia Plath, Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Gwendolyn Brooks, Alice Walker and Seamus Heaney.
