Over the course of fifteen years, Mary Ruefle delivered a lecture every six months to a group of poetry graduate students. Collected here for the first time, these lectures include Poetry and the Moon, Someone Reading a Book Is a Sign of Order in the World, and Lectures I Will Never Give. Intellectually virtuosic, instructive, and experiential, Madness, Rack, and Honey resists definition, demanding instead an utter--and utterly pleasurable--immersion. Finalist for the 2012 National Book Critics Circle Award.
Mary Ruefle has published more than a dozen books of poetry, prose, and erasures.
