Why it's in the Cabin

This collection includes eight poems by Anne Sexton, taken from Selected Poems (1964) and Live or Die (1967). It was published very early in her career; only 9 years after the publication of her first collection, and only 5 years before her death. More collectible than people seem to think. A magazine that includes her work in the short span of her working career.

Author

Anne Sexton

Her highly personal and often raw verse bravely explored deeply intimate and controversial themes, including mental illness, depression, suicide, motherhood, sexuality, and the female body. Sexton's work, characterised by its vivid imagery and direct emotional honesty, brought these taboo subjects into the mainstream of American poetry, though her life was tragically marked by the very psychological struggles she so candidly portrayed.
