With an impressive body of poetry, essays, and criticism, feminist writer Katha Pollitt brings “a lively wit and considerable erudition” (Publishers Weekly) to a variety of political and social issues, including reproductive rights, racism, and poverty. Her poetry collection Antarctic Traveler won the National Book Critics Circle Award, she has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship and a National Endowment for the Arts grant, and her galvanizing essays in The Nation, The New Yorker, and other publications have garnered her much praise and many honors. Her new book makes an impassioned argument for a renewed commitment to the struggle for abortion rights.
