A New York Times Critics’ Pick A career-spanning selection of the lucid, courageous, and boldly political prose of National Book Award winner Adrienne Rich. Demonstrating the lasting brilliance of her voice and her prophetic vision, Essential Essays showcases Adrienne Rich’s singular ability to unite the political, personal, and poetical. The essays selected here by feminist scholar Sandra M. Gilbert range from the 1960s to 2006, emphasizing Rich’s lifelong intellectual engagement and fearless prose exploration of feminism, social justice, poetry, race, homosexuality, and identity.
"The poetry reader who stalks only the heights of Milton, Wordsworth, and Keats is missing a great deal of the fun. These pages, gathered from the lower slopes of Parnassus, present some of the more startling, outrageous and horrible of the poets' effluvia, couched in verse which should be deathless because it is so damnably bad. Here is an abysmal glimpse into an awful new world for the poetry lover"--Book jacket.
