Between the Iceberg and the Ship - Selected Essays

Critics may be both invigorated and infuriated by this collection of essays by poet Anne Stevenson--who believes that the "takeover" of poetry by critical theorists has, in recent years, all but brought about its demise in England and America. Her essays on Sylvia Plath, Elizabeth Bishop, Irish poetry, and other subjects upset existing assumptions of the "postmodern" era.
