Feminists Are Passing from Our Lives

Feminists Are Passing from Our Lives takes a searching look back over the years since the so-called sexual revolution, the earlier waves of feminism, the civil rights movement, a look at our daily struggle to live fully, justly, fairly, and with heart. Can it be done without heartbreak? No, says McGrath, but we're not done yet. The poems have echoes of a formal training, but are as muscular and adventurous as their free-verse forebears as well. This is a book for fighters and thinkers, for those who want our days to accumulate into something of substance and beauty, in spite of our mistakes and no matter what we face.
