Tillfälligt slut

"Most men prefer a self-deprecating woman." Generations of disapproval leave their mark and install mindsets that are hard to break. Project Boast offers 65 poems by 28 women poets who are speaking out about the straitjacket they've had to wear and celebrating the possibility of change. The result is a joyous encouragement and heartfelt rejoinder.

"From Sappho's alchemy of silence to Penelope Shuttle's wild, unrepentant roses of Katherine of Aragon, these poems are a cabal, a coven, a community, a choir of women's voices at once brave, painful and subtle. Together, they stand their ground and disturb the peace with a loudness hard won from centuries of humility. If Sarah Guppy could have raised her famous suspension bridge on the tensile strength of words, it would look something like this. â"Professor Sandeep ParmarDepartment of English, Liverpool University; Co-Director, Centre for New and International Writing
