She sleeps naked, wearing pearls, to play her part.Robin Morgan's latest collection is a tour-de force: poetry that thrills the intellect and stirs the emotions. Robin shares her joys and intimacies which take centre stage and laments 'the ringmaster's desertion' as death hovers in the wings and aging unfolds, while laughing at the pain/through the gridlocked traffic in my brain. Light and shadow, sleep and wakefulness, holding tight and letting go, regret and contentment, order and chaos, battle it out simultaneously through the interplanetary and domestic worlds.

Both embodiment and victim of the self-satisfied nineteenth-century French bourgeoisie, Emma Bovary lives in pursuit of something more, like the world depicted in the romance novels that have come to define her. Emma is oblivious to the realities of life, and her romantic delusions and search for transcendence through sex, money, and social position serve only to drive the increasingly troubled woman into an irreversible moral, emotional, and spiritual decline. That the author depicted his heroine in neutral terms, without condemnation, resulted in obscenity charges from the French courts, which likened the "lascivious" "Madame Bovary"'s "lack of restraint" to "a woman who throws off all garments." Exactly. "Madame Bovary "remains one of the most daring and liberating novels ever written.
Includes The Trial of Madame Bovary

"Feminism is creating freedom. Robin Morgan goes beyond describing what's wrong and begins to envision what could be." —Gloria Steinem

Poet, novelist, journalist, activist, Robin Morgan has been at the forefront of the second wave of the women's movement for the past two decades. Here she ranges across a variety of subject—from sexual passion, kinship, mortality, and marriage to theoretical physics—to imagine feminism in a new, holographic way.

In the last decade, the world has witnessed various examples of liberation. Which of them can we really call freedom? In a new Foreword and Afterword to this second edition, Robin Morgan reviews changes that have occurred in the political and scientific worlds, in her personal life, and in what she calls the "fourth dimension"—the longing for change, the readiness for freedom.

"Truly a book of great interest, The Anatomy of Freedom sheds genuine new light on 'the woman question.' Bravo!" —Simone de Beauvoir

"Audacious, courageous, poignant, wry—Robin Morgan's collection of poems is all this and more. A large audience will welcome them. So will historians in the future who need to know what the poetry of this time and place was like."—Catharine R. Stimpson

"The development of Morgan's artistry is everywhere evident. Work from her early feminist days is filled with rage at the powerlessness of women. . . . But as the pages turn, a new universality of concern and sureness of voice take hold. . . . Lyricism and fresh technical discoveries proclaim new accomplishment in a 'lavish larkspur song . . . with a passion / for daily use.' "—Publishers Weekly

Robin Morgan's work, celebrated for its vindication of female experience and its evocation of the zeitgeist, is here intensely personal and powerful in new ways. In her sixth book of poems, prize-winning poet Robin Morgan undertakes a radical departure from her previous work, as she locates the landscape of her vision in the stark isolation of a self confronting love's aftermath, its losses, and its undeniable betrayals. In poems documenting a seven-year silence, Morgan's voice emerges markedly different, sounding a singular passage through a private hell of despair, the madness of a "Hot January," to a place of furious peace in which the artist weeps "to recognize the self I'd fled to find."

Ariel Leve and Robin Morgan's oral history 1963: The Year of the Revolution is the first book to recount the kinetic story of the twelve months that witnessed a demographic power shift--the rise of the Youth Quake movement, a cultural transformation through music, fashion, politics, and the arts. Leve and Morgan detail how, for the first time in history, youth became a commercial and cultural force with the power to command the attention of government and religion and shape society.

While the Cold War began to thaw, the race into space heated up, feminism and civil rights percolated in politics, and JFK's assassination shocked the world, the Beatles and Bob Dylan would emerge as poster boys and the prophet of a revolution that changed the world.

1963: The Year of the Revolution records, documentary-style, the incredible roller-coaster ride of those twelve months, told through the recollections of some of the period's most influential figures--from Keith Richards to Mary Quant, Vidal Sassoon to Graham Nash, Alan Parker to Peter Frampton, Eric Clapton to Gay Talese, Stevie Nicks to Norma Kamali, and many more.
