Kizer had to make difficult decisions when choosing only 100 poems to represent over 100 years worth of women poets. But what we end up with is 100 female poets, each with a strong unique voice. It's a wonderful anthology in which to discover new authors and revisit old favorites. Important and enjoyable.
