"However, it isn't truly right for television, a medium that by nature deflates the dualism of the orthodox detective through its unorthodox normalization of shifts and slippage — and thus its normalization of the vicissitudes of the flesh.3 The popularity of Dale Cooper is a tacit admission that on a visceral level the television audience knows how wrong the traditional detective is in that medium. As we shall see, Dale Cooper made ..."

Long after her death, the "confessional" label has prevented readers and critics from appreciating the full range of Sexton's poetic achievement. Sexton: Selected Criticism cracks open the critical bell jar surrounding Sexton to reveal a lively, ongoing conversation among scholars about the enduring popularity and significance of this Pulitzer Prize-win ..."

"Transformations is a book of fairy tales adapted from the brothers Grimm and narrated by the witty voice of a "middle-aged witch." Sexton's retellings expose the moral universe of the fairy tale as exceptionally conservative, rather than radical, in treating its primary though repressed subject matter, sexuality. In the works that followed her book of fairy tales — The Book of Folly (1972) and The Death Notebooks (1974) — Sexton's ..."

"Anne Sexton's language was simple, domestic; her imagery arresting; her subject matter urgent, shocking and exciting. She wrote about mental breakdown, sex, addiction, abortion - the other side of ordinary life. 'Madness' and its cultural meanings were central to her art as to her life; yet it is a bright, lucid and sane voice that resonates. Sexton's poems are accessible, moving and intensely honest. Her poems are brought together her ..."
