This Business of Words: Reassessing Anne Sexton

One of America's most influential women writers, Anne Sexton has long been overshadowed by fellow confessional poets Sylvia Plath and Robert Lowell and is seldom featured in literary criticism. This volume reassesses Sexton and her poetry for the first time in two decades and offers directions for future Sexton scholarship. Mapping Sexton's influence on twenty-first-century cultural contexts, these essays emphasize her continuing vitality.
