The poems in How the Earth Holds Us span more than five decades in the career of Mary Holman Tuteur, a remarkable poet known to many as Maggie. As a protégée of Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney in the 1960s, Tuteur demonstrated a keen eye for imagery, a sensitivity to rhythm, and an open-hearted honesty, qualities that she would hone as her life and her work grew deeper and more complex. Themes of intimacy and exile, grief and ecstasy, mortality, kinship, and the resilience of the creative impulse thread through the book's seven sections, accompanied by the poet's own dream-wrought and imaginative drawings. A foreword by Bruce Gibbs and an afterword and photographs by Louise Kleinsorge Williams offer context both for those familiar
with Tuteur's poems and those discovering her work for the first time.

I began making poems when I was learning, awkwardly, how to make words. I wanted to say how the sunlight in the kitchen garden bounced off the grass blades and made them shine. That impulse led to poetry submersion in Berkeley in the sixties and an MA from Stanford in Creative Writing in 1978. Then I forgot about the whole thing and became a psychotherapist.A friend challenged (or bullied) me back into writing when he noticed that I thought like a poet. So I plunged back into poetry in the 90s.Favorite teachers have been Seamus Heaney, Jean Valentine, Jane Hirshfield, Terri Ehret and Kim Addonizio.I've appeared in various publications including The Nation, The Hudson Review, the anthology WOMANPRAYERS, Marin Poetry Center Anthologies IV and, I believe, the current one.
