{"product_id":"9781587296390","title":"Women Poets on Mentorship: Efforts and Affections","description":"\u003cbr\u003eImagine being a young poet, nurturing your craft without the benefit of established mentors. Imagine having never been in a class taught by a woman poet or not having a bookshelf filled with books written by living women poets. Luckily, young women poets today don’t have to. Arielle Greenberg and Rachel Zucker’s \u003ci\u003eWomen Poets on Mentorship: Efforts and Affections \u003c\/i\u003ecollects both personal essays and representative poems by women born after 1960 whose careers were influenced—directly or indirectly—by the women who preceded them.\u003cp\u003eThe poets in this collection describe a new kind of influence, one less hierarchical, less patriarchal, and less anxious than forms of mentorship in the past. Vivid and intelligent, these twenty-four essays explore the complicated nature of the mentoring relationship, with all its joys and difficulties, and show how this new sense of writing out of female experience and within a community of writers has fundamentally changed women’s poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes:\u003cbr\u003eJenny Factor on Marilyn Hacker\u003cbr\u003eBeth Ann Fennelly on Denise Duhamel\u003cbr\u003eMiranda Field on Fanny Howe\u003cbr\u003eKatie Ford on Jorie Graham\u003cbr\u003eJoy Katz on Sharon Olds\u003cbr\u003eValerie Martínez on Joy Harjo\u003cbr\u003eErika Meitner on Rita Dove\u003cbr\u003eAimee Nezhukumatathil on Naomi Shihab Nye\u003cbr\u003eEleni Sikelianos on Alice Notley\u003cbr\u003eTracy K.
