Description

The Conversation is Judith Barrington's long meditated dialogue with the many interlocking parts of her life, the record of her sustained career as writer, teacher, activist, and explorer of the heart's mysteries. Judith Barrington is also the author of Lifesaving: A Memoir, winner of the Lambda Book Award and runner up for the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for the memoir. She was recently poet-in-residence at Stanford University and has received many residencies including the Tyrone Guthrie Centre and Hedgebrook. She teaches in the USA, Britain, and Spain and has been a faculty member of the MFA Program at the University of Alaska, Anchorage. "This collection of poems is about remembering the memories that have attached themselves, so that they and what they represent may e re-remembered, in a slightly different, slightly less-edged context, backfilled with the wisdom of experience and age and simply living on."--The Oregonian
