Rich Wife is a collection of long poems whose structures echo the cluttered charm of a dresser adorned with hats and hairpins, vials and scarves. Traversing the interlaced landscapes of motherhood, marriage, wealth, and the unspoken contracts of domestic life, Emily Bludworth de Barrios folds personal experience into far-ranging meditations on beauty, nostalgia, power, and privilege. As much a contemplation of art as it is of womanhood, Rich Wife engages deeply with art history and aesthetics and examines the domestic as an artistic canvas in itself, where all objects and relationships become charged symbols.
