Of course, there are always disasters looming, both cosmic and domestic.

Her poems are immaculately crafted and very smart, often with a steely feminism; she won the Pulitzer Prize in 1985 for her collection <em>Yin<\/em>. As the <em>Times<\/em> says, \u201cShe was writing as early as the 1950s about the conflict for women between the creative imperative and social expectations\u2014but it was far different in character from that of her contemporary Adrienne Rich. Where the poems of Ms. Rich, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2012\/03\/29\/books\/adrienne-rich-feminist-poet-and-author-dies-at-82.html?pagewanted=all&amp;module=Search&amp;mabReward=relbias&amp;\" target=\"_blank\">who died in 2012<\/a>, landed like bombs flung from the barricades, those of Ms. Kizer felt more like a stiletto slipped between the ribs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ursula K. Le Guin called Kizer\u2019s poetry \u201cintensely, splendidly oral, wanting to be read aloud, best of all to be read or roared by the lion herself.\u201d Kizer, born in Washington, was known for her long, careful periods of revision, as evidenced in the manuscript above. (She was an honest self-critic, too; note that \u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Re-write<\/span> this LOUSY couplet\u201d scrawled in the margin.) She took more than thirty years to edit the sequence \u201cPro Femina,\u201d which contains one of her most famous lines: \u201cWe are the custodians of the world\u2019s best-kept secret: Merely the private lives of one-half of humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to her Writers at Work interview, <em>The Paris Review<\/em> published many of Kizer\u2019s poems, including \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/poetry\/2271\/twelve-oclock-carolyn-kizer\">Twelve O\u2019Clock<\/a>,\u201d in our Winter 1990 issue; and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/poetry\/2704\/gerda-carolyn-kizer\">Gerda<\/a>,\u201d which opens with an old Swedish children\u2019s prayer, from Spring 1987.
