Inhaltsangabe

Combining anecdotes with analysis, Margaret Randall describes how, in 20th century revolutionary societies, women's issues were gradually pushed aside. Randall shows how distorted visions of liberation and shortcomings in practice left a legacy that not only shortchanged women but undermined the revolutionary project itself. Finally, she grapples with the ways in which women themselves often retreated into more traditional roles and the rage that this engenders.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Margaret Randall is a feminist poet with a long history of social activism (in Mexico,
Cuba, and Nicaragua, as well as the United States). More than 150 published books
reflect her personal experience and generational struggles. She has also translated much
poetry by others. In Mexico, she co-founded El Corno Emplumado, a bilingual journal
that published more than 700 writers from 35 countries. Returning to the US in 1984, the
government ordered her deported, claiming her writing subversive. She won her case in
1989. Among her recent awards are the Poet of Two Hemisphere Prize (Quito, Ecuador
2019) and the 2020 George Garrett Award given by AWP.
