Instructions to the Double

Instructions to the Double

The poems in Instructions to the Double continue to be regarded as some of Gallagher’s finest. Not only did the writing in this book establish Gallagher as a promising poet, it helped establish Graywolf as a serious and important new press. Throughout her career, Gallagher has surprised her readers with a broad range of styles and subject matter (check out Moon Crossing Bridge). From unabashed, autobiographical love poems to dark elegies, from linear narratives to dense and philosophical meditations, Gallagher’s poems leap from the beautiful to the violent and back again in the quick turn of a phrase. The working-class Pacific Northwest of Gallagher’s childhood also plays an essential role in shaping the poems found in Instructions to the Double. Indeed, landscape and industry are the backdrop to this unflinching, lyrical collection.
