About This Book

Dodd explores the lives and work of four twentieth-century women poets and argues that sexist and male-dominated cultural forces in their personal and professional lives challenged these women to find a unique mode of expression in their poetry.

Elizabeth Dodd is Assistant Professor of English and Creative Writing at Kansas State University.  Her own poems have appeared in many magazines and journals.

Praise For This Book

"The Veiled Mirror and the Woman Poet would make an excellent accompaniment text for students of writing, poetry, and women's studies. It is well-written, clear and accessible."--Ohioana

"Dodd's careful close readings--as both a poet and a critic--illustrate that the task for the twentieth-century woman writer continues to be "not merely to look back at an existing body of work and see it anew, but to look inward and envision a path for her own potential."--Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature
