Ron Silliman said that award-winning United States poet and Critic Rachel Blau DuPlessis’ long poem project “Drafts” “…is proving to be one of the major poetic achievements of our time.” Begun in 1986, it is collected in Pitch: Drafts 77-95 (2010), in Torques: Drafts 58-76 (2007), in Drafts 39-57, Pledge, with Draft unnumbered: Précis (2004), all from Salt Publishing, as well as in Drafts 1-38, Toll (Wesleyan U.P., 2001). The Collage Poems of Drafts is forthcoming from Salt in fall 2010. Patrick Pritchett said of these: “DuPlessis has created one of the most sustained and magnificent meditations written by a contemporary poet on loss, presence, and the haunting persistence of language to redeem what has vanished ….”. But DuPlessis is also an acclaimed critical writer, having published the books of essays, Blue Studios: Poetry and Its Cultural Work (2006), The Pink Guitar: Writing as Feminist Practice (1990/2006) both from University of Alabama Press, along with Genders, Races, and Religious Cultures in Modern American Poetry, 1908-1934 (Cambridge University Press, 2001). Her recently completed critical book is Purple Passages: Patriarchal Poetry and its Ends. She has edited The Selected Letters of George Oppen (1990). Her work has been translated into French (by J-P Auxémery & Chris Tysh), Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Serbian. She has received a Pew Fellowship for Artists, a residency at the Rockefeller Study Center at Bellagio, Italy & a fellowship at the National Humanities Center, North Carolina. Her poetry can be heard on PENNSound, & her websites are http://rachelblauduplessis.com/ & also: http://wings.buffalo.edu/epc/authors/duplessis
