I wanted to get back to some creative work. Yet I feared the long days of writing novels closed off in my library for a year or more. I needed projects that took me out into the world, engaged me with people. The brevity of a poem appealed to me. Unlike a novel, it didn't take two years to write one. Now, more than 20 years later, I have a body of work, with many rewarding moments, and many beloved friends to thank for the richness of these years. This book of poetry has come of all this. - Adrienne Richard\u003cp\u003e\u0026gt; ABOUT THE POET \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdrienne Richard was born in 1921, and is a 1943 graduate of the University of Chicago.
