The First Four Books of Poems collects the early work that established Louise Gluck as one of America's most original and important poets. Honored with the Pulitzer Prize for The WildIris, Gluck was celebrated early in her career for her fierce, austerely beautiful voice. InFirstborn, The House on Marshland Wand, Descending Figure, and The Triumph of Achilles, which wonthe National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry, we see the conscious progression of apoet who speaks with blade-like accuracy and stirring depth.
Quite simply put, a great poet is presented in the evolution of her craft, through Firstborn (1968), The House on Marshland (1975), Descending Figure (1980), and The Triumph of Achilles (1985). Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

1st 4 Books of of Poems
I've been a fan of Louise Glück for a long time, but was never able to articulate why I liked her writing so much. And then I met someone who had also read a great deal of Glück's poetry, and she said, "I like her work because it penetrates." I've never found a better description of the effect her writing has on me. It penetrates.
