Blue Etiquette

When Kathleen Driskell pulled an old edition of Emily Postâ€™s Etiquette from the used bookstore shelf and blew dust off the blue linen cover, she instantly found herself and her family within those pagesâ€•not as the Worldlys, Oldlineages, or the Gildings (archetypes Post created to demonstrate how to properly manage a grand house full of servants), but as the housemaids, cooks, and useful men working for those very rich. The noted poetâ€•whose collection Seed Across Snow was twice listed as a national bestseller by the Poetry Foundationâ€•explores class, the workplace, and those tense interactions between the haves and the have nots in her new collection. As America watches its middle-class quickly decline, Blue Etiquette rings with relevance.
