About the Author
Rich, Adrienne: - Adrienne Rich (1929-2012) was an award-winning poet, influential essayist, radical feminist, and major public intellectual of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. She wrote two dozen volumes of poetry, including the National Book Award-winning Diving into the Wreck, and more than a half-dozen of prose.
Praise for this book
Rich not only asserts but demonstrates that every woman's soul is haunted 'by the spirits of earlier women who fought for their unmet needs'. . . . Throughout, Rich underscores the duty of American women artists to 'take women's existence seriously as a source of art.' Highly recommended. "
