In Feminine Gospels, Carol Ann Duffy draws on the historical, the archetypal and the fantastical to create various visions – and revisions – of female identity.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, fairytale royals or girls-next-door.‘From verbal nuances to mind-expanding imaginative leaps, her words seem freshly plucked from the minds of non-poets – that is, she makes it look easy’ – Charlotte Mendelson, author of The Exhibitionist, Observer
