Coming to Light cover

This collection of 16 essays discusses the broad relationship of women poets to the American literary tradition

“An extremely important book, both in illuminating feminist poetics and in providing a historical overview of women poets in the 20th century – from Mina Loy’s revolutionary erotic free verse to Anne Sexton’s ironic restructuring of myth in her Transformations… A feast of information and insight.”
