"The editors of this Selected Poems have carefully chipped away at the block of marble and revealed the true figure of Sexton's work: haunted, plaintive, raucous, as often exuberantly witty as it is afflicted." -- J. D. McClatchy "This selected edition of Sexton's poems, arranged chronologically and enhanced by an insightful introduction, will make her work accessible not only to students but to readers everywhere." -- Maxine Kumin
Anne Sexton was born Anne Gray Harvey in Massachusetts in 1928. After the birth of her second daughter, Anne suffered a suicidal breakdown. Self-hatred led to repeated hospitalisations and in 1974, aged forty-five, she committed suicide.
