A new collection of poems ranging over the experience of
women--historical and imagined, real-life and larger than
life--from the award-winning author of "The World's Wife."
From the sadness of Elizabeth I, looking back on her long and
powerful but lonely life, to the travails of a woman whose work is
literally never done as she continues to trawl the seas to feed her
billion offspring, to a movingly lyrical reflection on the beauty
of a growing child, Carol Ann Duffy explores in this volume the
myriad components of women's lives and loves through the
crystallizing prism of poetry. Sometimes erotic and personal,
sometimes historical and grand, sometimes witty and full of
surprises, the poems in Feminine Gospels are all beautifully
crafted works that are as varied in style as the poems in Duffy's
earlier acclaimed volume "The World's Wife," Together, they will
challenge and entertain as they explore the fullness of the female
condition through their author's unique poetic voice.
