First published in 1978, at a time when the brand new word 'sexism' raised hoots of derision, this breakthrough collection mounted a timely and bracing challenge to the white male ownership of the poetic tradition. Produced by a group of feminist writers including Michele Roberts and Alison Fell, 'Licking the Bed Clean' showcases poems that are passionate, perceptive, sometimes hilarious, and crackling with subversive energy, while the original introduction candidly explores questions of art, politics, self-doubt, and the collective process. A breath of fresh air in a Facebook era of branding, marketing and rampant individualism, this collectors' item provides a lasting and invaluable insight into women's struggle to find an authentic voice.
