Ostricker leads us carefully through the vast passages of women's poetry in America like a midwife with words for hands or an Ariadne with a thread made of thought. She identifies five categories of characteristics that seem to be salient and central to women's poetry, especially, but not limited to, feminist poetry. These include the quest for autonomous self-definition, writing the body, anger and polarization, feminine erotics, and revisionist myth making, and she also includes a wonderful chapter on women's poetry from 1650-1960. The work is inspiring and eloquently presented, sure to arouse the passion of poetry lovers of all persuasions. For those who are poets, this book not only educates but sparks new meaning from the coal-fire of history, setting ablaze in golden spires the carbon legacy of our fore-mothers. Deeply resonant, this text is like the rich crackle of dawn, rousing sleeping minds from sleep.
