'Carol Ann Duffy proves yet again to be an unparalleled poet' Charlotte Mendelson, Observer'Witty, penetrating and lucid . . . Duffy's ingenuity and virtuosity are fully on display' Evening StandardCarol Ann Duffy's powerful sixth collection draws on the historical, the archetypal, the biblical and the fantastical to create various visions - and revisions - of female identity. Simultaneously stripping women bare and revealing them in all their guises and disguises, these poems tell tall stories as though they were true confessions, and spin modern myths from real women seen in every aspect - as bodies and corpses, writers and workers, shoppers and slimmers, fairy-tale royals or girls-next-door. Together, they challenge and entertain as they explore the fullness of the female condition through the Poet Laureate's unique voice.At once lyrical and real, tender and subversive, Feminine Gospels has charmed both readers and critics since it was first published in 2002.
