About this title

Synopsis

Literary Nonfiction. Alice Notley has consistently peopled her poetry with the voices of those around her: kids, friends, husbands, strangers, and the dead. THIRTY-ODD FUNCTIONS OF VOICE IN THE POETRY OF ALICE NOTLEY offers an array of interpretations of this technique. While not aspiring to completeness, and limiting its attention to one formal aspect of a single author's work, this poem-essay sketches relationships between intimate speech and literary language.
