Consider, for instance, "In the Pea Patch": "These as they clack in the wind / saying castanets, saying dance with me, / saying do me, dangle their intricate / nuggety scrota." The melodic flow of the lines does a lot of poetic work for Kumin, reinforcing the poem's thematic celebration of nature's seductiveness and inherent eroticism. These are very beautiful, very knowing poems. From Library Journal The New York Times Book Review, Richard Tillinghurst A welcome addition to any poetry library. The New York Times This collection by a versatile elegist and observer of nature features vivid poems that are, refreshingly, about something. Many tell stories that serve to preserve her family's history. Last year [1997], Richard Tillinghast called the book "a welcome addition to any poetry library." From Booklist It's always good to have a solid collection of selected poems by a living, still prolific poet. Kumin has published 11 volumes of poetry, including her most recent

Maxine Kumin: The poetry of a New England landscape An interview by Daina Savage, October 1994 Maxine Kumin barely has time to catch her breath on an autumn day at her New Hampshire farm. "I'm off to bring in the horses," the state's Poet Laurete said as she ended a brief phone interview. Evening feedings, mucking stalls, mending fences all call her away. But it is just these tasks that later find their way into her writings. The craggy wilderness of her 200-acre farm the small meadow that feeds her barnful of horses each summer, the sugar maples that color her fall and fill buckets with their sweet sap each spring is the landscape of her verse. It is a place that raspberries fall off their stems into pails. The woods bloom with mushrooms bursting from the hollows of oak trees. And a strawberry roan mare with the coloring of the freckled variety of redheaded women can stand "swashbuckling the flies and mosquitoes with her bug repellent-larded tail." It is the place the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet calls home. "My poetry is pretty much centered in New England, but more poetry of people and animals than of landscape," said the writer whose plain, direct style often evokes comparisons to Robert Frost. "I supposed it could be called pastoral, but not a romanticized pastoral. It has real manure in it and real rain, and real anguish and loss just as much as it has some of the sunny hours."

Maxine Kumin Born Maxine Winokur, Kumin attended Radcliffe College (B.A., 1946; M. A, 1948), and has lectured at many universities, including Princeton, Tufts, and Brandeis. She is the author of several collections of poetry, including Up Country (1972), for which she won a Pulitzer Prize, and, most recently, Nurture (1989), Looking for Luck: Poems (1992), and Connecting the Dots: Poems (1996). She has also published several novels, collections of essays and short stories, and more than twenty children's books, several of them in collaboration with the poet Anne Sexton. Kumin was born in Germantown, Philadelphia, in 1925, attainted a BA and MA from Radcliffe before it was subsumed by Harvard, and now lives with her husband of 55 years in an old farmhouse in central New Hampshire. Here, their three children grown and gone, they have raised ten foals, a succession of dogs and cats, a few sheep, organic vegetables, and for several springs, tended a hundred sugar-maple tree taps. Both Kumins were avid horseback riders and competed in distance rides, carriage drives, and three-phase events. In July of 1998, Maxine had a near-fatal carriage driving accident, recorded in her memoir, Inside the Halo and Beyond: Anatomy of a Recovery.

To write about the monstrous sense of alienation the poet feels in this culture of polarized hatreds is a way of staying sane. We are, each of us, our own prisoner. We are locked up in our own story.

19. Maxine Kumin's Life And Career On maxine kumin s Life and Career. Emory Elliott, et. al. See Jean Gould, Anne Sextonmaxine kumin, in Modern American Women Poets (1984), pp. 151175. http://www.english.uiuc.edu/maps/poets/g_l/kumin/life.htm

On Maxine Kumin's Life and Career Emory Elliott, et. al. "T here is no more, no less, peace of mind in the disciplined life of the barnyard than there is in the routine of the office," writes Maxine Kumin in In Deep: Country Essays (1987) after many years of raising horses on her New Hampshire farm. Typical of Kumin's temperate manner, this statement reflects the unsentimental relationship to nature and the sober acceptance of human limitations that characterize her poetry. Family relationships, husbandry, and the inner life of women as they negotiate various rolesmother, daughter, sister, loverare the subjects that have dominated Kumin's verse since the appearance of her first book, Halfway , in 1961. Her maturation as a poet coincides with the emergence in American literature of women writing more frankly than ever before about their experiences. Although she has rarely been as explicitly political as such feminist poets as Adrienne Rich, Kumin typically summons to her aid a vision of female solidarity, as in the prayerlike hope expressed in "The Envelope" (1978): "May we carry our mothers forth in our bellies." A close friend of the poet Anne Sexton until Sexton's suicide in 1975, Kumin has said that they frequently shared their works in progress and had an enormous influence on each other. Kumin is, however, careful to draw distinctions. Calling herself a skeptic, she points out in a 1985 interview with Diana George that Sexton was "much more of an extremist and an absolutist in her search for a deity." A critic has claimed that Kumin "keeps her demons bridled," refraining, for the most part, from the explicit exposition of psychic trauma that marks the work of Sexton and of Sylvia Plath. Understatement, rather than rage or passion, is Kumin's hallmark. Thus, the burning houses in "The Longing to Be Saved" (1978) indirectly suggest Kumin's ambivalence about the domestic settings so prevalent in her work. Are not we all, she seems to ask, yearning to be rescued from our homes?
