The Book of Bad Betties

'By far the most exciting, questing and innovative anthology of woman-centred poetry in recent years. Rich, irritable, joyous. Beautifully written, exquisitely edited and curated, The Book of Bad Betties is an essential addition to the contemporary literary canon.' Joelle Taylor 'This anthology is a joy. A gallery of pen-portraits by some of the most exciting poets around. I've rarely encountered so many wise, subversive, glorious women in one book.' Clare Pollard The poems in this book pay tribute to the women who've changed our lives, globally or personally. The fighters, survivors, rebels, queens, bosses, mentors, mothers, lovers and friends.
