In the first, “Eden and After,” Gregory Orr retells the story of Adam and Eve. The second sequence, “The City of Poetry,” evokes and explores a visionary metropolis where “every poem is a house, and every house a poem.” The final sequence, “River Inside the River,” focuses on redemption through the mysterious power of language to resurrect the beloved and recover what is lost. \u003ci\u003eRiver Inside the River\u003c\/i\u003e combines Orr’s characteristic spirituality and meditative lyricism with storytelling and myth-making. These are poems that will sustain, console, and give hope, from a poet at the height of his powers.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGregory Orr\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of fourteen collections of poetry and several books of prose, including \u003ci\u003eThe Blessings: A Memoir\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eA Primer for Poets and Readers of Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003ePoetry as Survival\u003c\/i\u003e.
