Robin Becker is an American poet and critic whose work is marked by a search for affirmation in a complex world. Her interest in narrative stems from a childhood steeped in her grandmother's stories, which instilled in her the nuances of storytelling and her family's history. Influenced by the powerful voices of women poets from the 1970s, her poetry embraces the dualities of human existence, finding beauty within the real world. Becker explores the duality and multifaceted nature of human presence, demonstrating a "perfect affection" that acknowledges life's complexities.
Robin Beck uses a range of archaeological and documentary evidence to offer a new perspective on how Indian nations in the early American South rebuilt their political and social organizations from the ruins of the precolonial world.
