Hardback. Gillian White argues that the poetry wars among critics and practitioners are shaped by "lyric shame"--an unspoken but pervasive embarrassment over what poetry is, should be, and fails to be. "Lyric" is less a specific genre than a way to project subjectivity onto poems--an idealized poem that is nowhere and yet everywhere. Num Pages: 320 pages. BIC Classification: 2AB; DSC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 159 x 243 x 29. Weight in Grams: 674.

Hardback. Argues that the individual in a lyric is only a virtual entity and that lyric poetry takes its power from the public, emotional power of language itself. This work proposes that lyric poetry is a public discourse rooted in the mother tongue. It demonstrates the ways that the lyric "I" speaks, from first to last, as a creation of poetic language.
