Winner of the Plutarch Award for the Best Biography of 2013
A mesmerizing and essential biography of the modernist poet Marianne Moore
The Marianne Moore that survives in the popular imagination is dignified, white-haired, and demure in her tricorne hat; she lives with her mother until the latter's death; she maintains meaningful friendships with fellow poets but never marries or falls in love.
Linda Leavell's Holding On Upside Down―the first biography of this major American poet written with the support of the Moore estate―delves beneath the surface of this calcified image to reveal a passionate, canny woman caught between genuine devotion to her mother and an irrepressible desire for personal autonomy and freedom.
