In the Lateness of the World: Poems: A new poetry collection of uncanny grace and moral force from one of our country`s most celebrated poetsOver four decades, Carolyn Forché`s visionary work has reinvigorated poetry`s power to awaken the reader. Her groundbreaking poems have been testimonies, inquiries, and wonderments. They daringly map a territory where poetry asserts our inexhaustible responsibility to each other. Her first new collection in seventeen years, In the Lateness of the World is a tenebrous book of crossings, of migrations across oceans and borders but also between the present and the past, life and death. The poems call to the reader from the end of the world where they are sifting through the aftermath of history. Forché envisions a place where `you could see everything at once ... every moment you have lived or place you have been.` The world here seems to be steadily vanishing, but in the moments before the uncertain end, an illumination arrives and `there is nothing that cannot be seen.` In the Lateness of the World is a revelation from one of the finest poets writing today.

Gathering the Tribes: An examination of kinship and uprootedness, Gathering the Tribes is the first volume of poetry by Carolyn Forche and the 71st volume of the Yale Series of Younger Poets The poems in Gathering the Tribes recount experiences from the author`s adolescence and young`adult life, closely bound to the natural cycles of the seasons, of generations, of the body`s functioning. Many deal with uprootedness-hasty emigrations from Czechoslovakia and Kiev, the loss of grandparents and other elders, people leaving and being sent away. But this poetry is not a sentimental celebration of the goodness of nature and harmony with the world is never something assumed. The harmony Forche seeks goes deeper than simple submission to natural processes or identification with an ethnic group, and it must be fought for with a tenuous faith. The balance that must be found between the ugliness, the harshness of her history-both natural and social-and its intense beauty, is what distinguishes Forche`s poetry and gives it its depth and dimension.
