\"\"Biography:<\/h2>\n

Louise Gluck was born in New York City in 1943 and grew up on Long Island. She attended Sarah Lawrence College and Columbia University. Gluck is considered by many to be one of America’s most talented contemporary poets. She is known for the technical precision of her poetry, its sensitivity, and insight into loneliness, family relationships, divorce, and death. Gluck is often described as an autobiographical poet; her work is known for its emotional intensity and for frequently drawing on mythology or nature imagery to meditate on personal experiences and modern life. Thematically, her poems have illuminated aspects of trauma, desire, and nature. Gluck’s early books feature personae grappling with the aftermaths of failed love affairs, disastrous family encounters, and existential despair, and her later work continues to explore the agony of the self. Currently, Gluck is an adjunct professor and Rosenkranz Writer in Residence at Yale University, and she lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n
