Book Description:
|
Robert Frost and a Poetics of Appetite reads Frost's poetry within a theoretical perspective generated, but not limited by feminist analysis, and it evaluates Frost's persistent feminising of poetic language in ways that he typically dramatises as both erotic and humiliating. The study unites biography, psychology and feminism in creating an adept and imaginative instrument of interpretation.
