A review by lucysnowy
The World's Wife by Carol Ann Duffy
5.0
lost myself completely
in a wild embroidery of love, lust, loss, lessons learnt
this was wonderful. carol ann duffy's poetry is just amazing. every time i read a collection from her i fall in love a little bit more.
the stand out poems for me were anne hathaway, medusa, mrs lazarus, pygmalion's bride, penelope and dementer. you can probably tell im loving myth retellings at the moment.
it was interesting to research some of the names that i hadn't heard before - rip van winkle, faust - then hear duffy's perspective their lives. i will certainly be picking up more of her work and i look forward to discussing this in my seminar in a few weeks!
