"I came to explore the wreck. / The words are purposes. / The words are maps. / I came to see the damage that was done / and the treasures that prevail." These provocative poems move with the power of Rich's distinctive voice.
"Diving into the Wreck is one of those rare books that force you to decide not just what you think of it, but what you think about yourself. It is a book that takes risks, and forces the reader to take them also... You feel about her best images, her best myths, that nobody else writes quite like this." -- Margaret Atwood "The poet is telling of something now standing before her eyes of which her heart is full... These poems are not loose facts, they are parts of a revelation." -- Richard Howard
