Inhaltsangabe

Poetry. Winner of the 2001 New Issues Poetry Prize. Foreword by C.K. Williams. THE REPUBLIC OF SELF is a meditation on both the public and private American self. Elizabeth Powell's serious yet sexy and entertaining poems attempt to reconcile the divisions, diversions, and prospects of the self as we know it. THE REPUBLIC OF SELF becomes a field guide to all that lives within: nymphs, satyrs, Greco-Roman gods, even the icons of mass media and government are here in this, our forever new/old republic still inventing itself. "Nothing quite like her in American poetry..." - David Rivard.
