Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This reprint of a White Pine Press classic brings together an astonishing range of work from the turn of the century to the present. Despite cultural maxims encouraging them to be silent, women continue to speak, often through the language of poetry, where there is an abundance of intuition and the possibility of reclaiming power through language. In the work included here, we see how the common threads of courage and inventiveness can be woven into a bright tapestry of womens voices that presents a true picture of a culture that must create its own history. Over fifty poets, including those wellknown, such as Gabriela Mistral, Alfonsina Storni, and Cristina Peri Rossi, and those just emerging are included.Marjorie Agosn, editor of the Secret Weavers series, is wellknown as a poet, writer, and human rights activist. She is a professor at Wellesley College in Massachusetts.
