The Hiding Place
Jorie Graham
1989
Introduction
The Hiding Place
first appeared in the May 22 issue of The New Yorker in 1989. The poem is not one of Graham’s most important or well known work, perhaps because it marks a departure from her typical style. Normally, Graham is known for her oblique lyrics, but The Hiding Place
is one of her more narrative, more representational poems. Like all her other work, this poem is written in free verse in the first person singular.
A set interpretation of a Graham poem is next to impossible. The most one can hope for is a general impression while reading one of her poems. The occasion of this work is the famous Paris uprising that began in May of 1968. More precisely, Graham’s memory of events surrounding the student demonstrations serves as the genesis of the poem. Like most postmodern poetry, the text of the poem wavers between imagination and reality. The poem might be grounded in a historical event, but it remains unclear which events actually happened and which are constructed
