Hymen is a book written by Hilda Doolittle, a poet and novelist. The book is a collection of poems that explore the theme of love, marriage, and sexuality. The title of the book, Hymen, refers to the Greek god of marriage and is a symbol of the union between two people.The poems in the book are written in a modernist style, with complex structures and vivid imagery. They explore the joys and pains of love and marriage, as well as the societal expectations and constraints that come with these institutions. The poems also touch on themes of gender and power dynamics in relationships.Doolittle's writing is known for its feminist perspective, and Hymen is no exception. The book challenges traditional notions of marriage and femininity, and celebrates the strength and agency of women in romantic relationships.Overall, Hymen is a powerful and thought-provoking collection of poems that explores the complexities of love and marriage from a feminist perspective. It is a must-read for fans of modernist poetry and those interested in exploring the intersection of love and gender in literature.It was easy enough to bend them to my wish, it was easy enough to alter them with a touch, but you adrift on the great sea, how shall I call you back?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
