In this extraordinary and bold book, S.H. Clark explores and
constructs a history of poetic misogyny. For the first time, a wide
range of English poetry by men is examined for evidence of the
articulation of heterosexual masculine desires.
But Clark goes beyond a straightforward oppositional model of
reading the male canon, to ask how we read this work 'after
feminism', and whether it is possible to value these texts as
misogynist texts in the light of feminist theory?
Sordid Images is a challenging, controversial book. It will excite
and unsettle its readers, and inspire many to look again at some of
the cornerstone works of English literature.
