A Conversation With Gregory Orr Gregory Orr's writing is at a crossroad-more than one to be exact. A poet who has notedly and exclusively worked in free verse, he now has a sequence of poems in one of the stricter forms imaginable: the villanelle. He also is writing a memoir at a time when this genre has become beleaguered with "lowest common denominator" simulacrums-though Orr has luckily brought to the form the same kind of intense, eloquent concern towards kinship, personal identity and memory that he evidences in his poetry. It was his poetry that first caught people's attention. His first two books, Burning the Empty Nests (1973) and Gathering the Bones Together (1975), constellated their poems with images that managed to be stark and sensual at the same time. The effects were sometimes haunting, sometimes playful-and, more often than not, both. Later work-including The Red House (1980) and We Must Make a Kingdom Out of It (1986)-moved into more narrative forms, exploring a synthesis of the surreal and the ordinary-even the mundane-that becomes the most prevalent in his latest collection, City of Salt (1995). Gregory Orr has also been one of the more astute poet-critics of late, and his ideas on the nature of the lyric, among many other subjects (for example, he has also written a book introducing readers to the poetry of Stanley Kunitz, his teacher at Columbia), have certainly gained a strong foothold within the discipline-especially his essays collected in Richer Entanglements as part of the Michigan Poets on Poetry series. Indeed, if many poets are noticeably reluctant to delve too far into criticism, Orr has demonstrated criticism's redeeming (and human) qualities, giving poets working out of a wide range of traditions new vocabularies with which to interact with poems-in ways that don't inhibit conversation but rather fosters it. No small feat in the 90s, when the world of poetry can seem as fractious as ever.

Gregory Orr excerpt from two chapters from Poetry as Survival How strange to be Emily Dickinson. She is so much smarter and livelier than anyone around heran inevitable conclusion for anyone who has experienced the delight of reading her letters. And yet, she is a woman. What can she do with her intelligence and imagination? She can't become a lawyer or doctor or professor. She can't go into business. All that her small-town New England world held out to her as possibilities were marriage and mother-hood or spinsterhood. No wonder she thought she would burst. No wonder her poems explode. With Emily Dickinson more than with any of my other heroes of imagination, I am concerned that by trying to pinpoint what specific trauma assailed her, I may be on the wrong track. Ultimately, it's pointless to attempt to locate the specific traumas that initiated the desolation and radical freedom that gave rise to the self-creation of her poems. All we could hope to do is guess. The worst situation of all would be the error of psychoanalytic -criticism: to think that by locating and labeling the poet's trauma, we had found out his or her secrets. To think that way would be to look down the wrong end of the telescope at diminishment. We need to go in the opposite direction: recognizing that the poet's trauma initiates the struggle of transformation that leads to the richly proliferating and glorious incarnations of the poems.

V P R VALPARAISO POETRY REVIEW Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Three Decades of Poetry and a Lifetime of Survival ~E DWARD B YRNE T HE T RANSFORMATIVE L YRIC: G REGORY O RR'S T HE C AGED O WL: N EW AND S ELECTED P OEMS, P OETRY AS S URVIVAL, AND T HE B LESSING Orr has accomplished an incredible feat, managing to bring together his tragic and triumphant personal narrative with his belief in the importance and impact of the personal lyric poem in a way that, through the strength of each genre, allows the three to comment upon one another and to contribute in harmony with one another to a greater understanding of the whole. When read together, these three books present in both prose and poetry not only a gripping private portrait of their author, but also a sophisticated and convincing case for the possibility of the "transformative power" of lyric poetry, as evidenced in Orr's own life experiences. The Human culture "invented" or evolved the personal lyric as a means of helping individuals survive the existential crises represented by extremities of subjectivity and also by such outer circumstances as poverty, suffering, pain, illness, violence, or loss of a loved one. This survival begins when we "translate" our crisis into language — where we give it symbolic expression as an unfolding drama of self and the forces that assail it. This same poem also arrays the ordering powers our shaping imagination has brought to bear on these disorderings. — Gregory Orr, "Introduction" to
