LOOKING FOR FLANNEL PAJAMAS SELECTED POEMS 1993-2010 In 1992, when my husband, Jim, died, I was 70, and as the survivor, I realized I faced the re-design of my life. I wanted to get back to some creative work. Yet I feared the long days of writing novels closed off in my library for a year or more. I needed projects that took me out into the world, engaged me with people. The brevity of a poem appealed to me. Unlike a novel, it didn’t take two years to write one. Now, more than 20 years later, I have a body of work, with many rewarding moments, and many beloved friends to thank for the richness of these years. This book of poetry has come of all this. – Adrienne Richard >> ABOUT THE POET Adrienne Richard was born in 1921, and is a 1943 graduate of the University of Chicago. She is the author of four novels (Pistol, The Accomplice, Wings, and Into The Road), the medical book, Epilepsy A New Approach, plus many newspaper articles and short stories. This is her first volume of poetry.

At the age of 92 Adrienne "Pat" Richard brings a feast of poems to her first collection, from autobiographical, to studies in the classics, to astute observations of ordinary life and the natural world. Pat has a clear voice that reflects an intellectual honesty, warm sensitivity and subtle humor behind her clean lines. Her poems are as straightforward and steady as a New Englander's gaze. After publishing a series of books for young people and then collaborating with a neurologist on a book on epilepsy, I am delighted Pat has finally released her poems to the world and I can hold this little poetic gem in my hands. I look forward to the next Selection!Product details

Looking for Flannel Pajamas Selected Poems 19932010 Adrienne Richard Books Reviews
I received Adrienne Richard's book of poetry as a gift in January. It was very timely. One of my few New Year's resolutions was to bring a little poetry into my life by reading a poem per day or listening to the morning poem on WAMU. Flannel Pajamas couldn't have come into my life at a better time. It's been a wonderful way to get through the winter.

with memorable images and insights. Adrienne Richard began these poems at 70 and they reflect her past and present and speak to all.
Whimsical, moving, delightful!
These poems will take you on a delightful journey - through relationships, dreams, love and loss, travels throughout the country, and personal growth. Easy to read, but take them slowly and savor them. And return again for deeper understanding and insight.
