A review by margarete
Love Poems by Anne Sexton

4.0

poems that just cut through you cleanly. still exploring work by women that examines bitchiness, wrath, and other emotions and subject matter that is ‘unbecoming’. interesting to contrast sexton with my adoration for plath—similar but very different, plath has a further veneer of composure, i feel, or rather some restraint and haughtiness, while sexton lays everything bare. more sexual, more taboo, for sure.
