Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The first comprehensive biography of Adrienne Rich, feminist and queer icon and internationally revered National Book Award winning poet.Adrienne Rich was the female face of American poetry for decades. Her forceful, uncompromising writing has more than stood the test of time, and the life of the woman behind the words is equally impressive. Motivated by personal revelations, Rich transformed herself from a traditional, Radcliffeeducated lyric poet and married mother of three sons into a pathbreaking lesbianfeminist author of prose as well as poetry. In doing so, she emerged as both architect and exemplar of the modern feminist movement, breaking ranks to denounce the maledominated literary establishment and paving the way for the many queer women of letters to take their places in the cultural mainstream. Drawing on a wealth of unpublished materials, including Rich's correspondence and indepth interviews with numerous people who knew her, Hilary Holladay digs deep into neverbeforeaccessed sources to portray Rich in full dimension and vivid, human detail.
