Goldenrod: Poems
Maggie SmithWith her breakout bestseller Keep Moving, Maggie Smith captured the nation with her "meditations on kindness & hope" (NPR). Now, with Goldenrod, the award-winning poet returns with a powerful collection of poems that look at parenthood, solitude, love, & memory.
Pulling objects from everyday life—a hallway mirror, a rock found in her son's pocket, a field of goldenrods at the side of the road—she reveals the magic of the present moment. Only Maggie Smith could turn an autocorrect mistake into a line of poetry, musing that her phone "doesn't observe / the high holidays, autocorrecting / shana tova to shaman tobacco, / Rosh Hashanah to rose has hands."
Slate called Smith's "superpower as a writer" her "ability to find the perfect concrete metaphor for inchoate human emotions & explore it with empathy & honesty.” The poems in Goldenrod celebrate the contours of daily life, explore & delight in the space between thought & experience, & remind us that we decide what is beautiful.
Maggie Smith is the award-winning author of You Could Make This Place Beautiful, Good Bones, The Well Speaks of Its Own Poison, Lamp of the Body, & the national bestseller Keep Moving. A 2011 recipient of a Creative Writing Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, Smith has also received several Individual Excellence Awards from the Ohio Arts Council, two Academy of American Poets Prizes, a Pushcart Prize, & fellowships from the Sustainable Arts Foundation & the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. She has been widely published, appearing in The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Paris Review, The Best American Poetry, etc. You can follow her on social media @MaggieSmithPoet.
