This review is from: Naming the Waves: Contemporary Lesbian Poetry (Paperback)
This is a Keeper!
Highly enjoyable and original collection, I was very happy this author was recommended reading in the anthology "The Poetry of Sex: Lesbians Write the Erotic" edited by Tee Corinne. What is not to like with wonderful writing from these greats among the 74 authors and 161 poems in this collection - Judy Grahn Adrienne Rich Dorothy Allison Audre Lorde Judith Barrington Jan Clausen Elena Dykewomon Linda Smuckler Chrystos Joan Larkin Jackie Lapidus Pat Parker Don't miss the well written and interesting introduction as well as the author profiles (including photos). From the back of the book - Love and desire, childhood and children, the value of sisterhood, self-identity and racism, day-to-day pleasures and sorrows, the reality of lesbian oppression - and defiance of that oppression: these are some of the themes in this collection of cotemporary lesbian poetry by more than 70 poets from both sides of the Atlantic. |
