Book Synopsis The Key to the City by : Anne Winters

Download or read book The Key to the City written by Anne Winters and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1986-03-15 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Key to the City brings together work that has long been admired by readers of literary magazines and quarterlies. The collection opens with "The Ruins," a group of poems set in poor neighborhoods in New York City—some so cut off from midtown that they seem part of another continent or another age. The people in these poems are schoolgirls, a cleaning lady in the laundromat, derelicts, a prostitute stabbed in the street. Their interwoven voices contribute to a complex, grave vision of remote causes and immediate suffering in the city. The poems of the second section explore a broad range of experience: pregnancy and nursing, inward solitude, the textures of Renaissance painting and American landscapes.
