La poeta Lorine Niedecker (Wisconsin, EE.UU., 1903-1970), autora de libros como New Goose (1942), My Friend Tree (1961), North Central (1968) y T & G: The Collected Poems (1969), vivió durante la mayor parte de su vida en una cabaña sobre los terrenos inundables del río Rock en Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, mientras se ganaba la vida con trabajos poco cualificados. Al mismo tiempo, y sin que sus vecinos lo supieran, dedicó toda su existencia a la poesía. Tras su muerte, acaecida en pleno fervor creativo, se suceden varias antologías, hasta la publicación de su obra completa en 2002.En su poesía, deudora de las vanguardias norteamericanas de entreguerras no menos que de los sonidos y las imágenes de su entorno, Niedecker abordó temas de género, sexualidad e ideología mucho antes que el feminismo moderno.

University of California Press Lorine Niedecker: Collected Works
'The Brontes had their moors, I have my marshes,' Lorine Niedecker wrote of flood-prone Black Hawk Island in Wisconsin, where she lived most of her life. Her life by water, as she called it, could not have been further removed from the avant-garde poetry scene where she also made a home. Niedecker is one of the most important poets of her generation and an essential member of the Objectivist circle. Her work attracted high praise from her peers - Marianne Moore, William Carlos Williams, Louis Zukofsky, Cid Corman, Clayton Eshleman - with whom she exchanged life-sustaining letters. Niedecker was also a major woman poet who interrogated issues of gender, domesticity, work, marriage, and sexual politics long before the modern feminist movement. Her marginal status, both geographically and as a woman, translates into a major poetry. Niedecker's lyric voice is one of the most subtle and sensuous of the twentieth century. Her ear is constantly alive to sounds of nature, oddities of vernacular speech, textures of vowels and consonants. Often compared to Emily Dickinson, Niedecker writes a poetry of wit and emotion, cosmopolitan experimentation and down-home American speech. This much-anticipated volume presents all of Niedecker's surviving poetry, plays, and creative prose in the sequence of their composition. It includes many poems previously unpublished in book form plus all of Niedecker's surviving 1930s surrealist work and her 1936-46 folk poetry, bringing to light the formative experimental phases of her early career. With an introduction that offers an account of the poet's life and notes that provide detailed textual information, this book will be the definitive reader's and scholar's edition of Niedecker's work.
