Voyages over Voices – Critical Essays on Anne Stevenson

Autor Angela Leighton
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 sep 2010
Voyages over Voices is the first book-length critical exploration of the work of internationally acclaimed American-British poet Anne Stevenson, who has long been regarded as one of the most important contemporary poets on either side of the Atlantic. Bringing together a distinguished list of contributors—including Jay Parini, Carol Rumens, Tim Kendall, and John Lucas—Angela Leighton provides an invaluable contribution to understanding Stevenson's large body of work.
"Anne Stevenson is as big and as great a poet as Plath or Bishop. . . . Leighton's richly rewarding collection makes a significant and invaluable contribution to our knowledge of her work."—Andrew McNeillie, University of Exeter

Recenzii

“Anne Stevenson is as big and as great a poet as Plath or Bishop, as her inclusion in the Library of America underlines, and, significantly, she is more difficult to assess. Leighton’s richly rewarding collection makes a significant and invaluable contribution to our knowledge of her work.”

“Stevenson has produced a large body of work which is at once representative of common contemporary concerns and highly individual. She is a voice for our age and compellingly her own questing and questioning self.”
