    An interesting collection, but I found some of the poems a bit dry. The historical context provided was helpful, though. Mary Sidney’s work stood out to me.

  2. Lakshmi Anusha Wudali

    This collection opened my eyes to the female voices of the Renaissance. While the language took some getting used to, the themes are surprisingly relevant today. Definitely recommend!

  3. Saumya Tiwari

    A fascinating glimpse into the minds of Renaissance women. Some poems resonated more than others, but overall a worthwhile read. I particularly enjoyed discovering Aemilia Lanyer.

    While not every poem captivated me, the collection as a whole is impressive. It’s a reminder that women’s voices have always been important.

    A decent collection, but I felt the analysis overshadowed the poetry at times. Still, a worthwhile read for those interested in the subject.
