Publisher's Synopsis

Elizabeth Barrett was inspired by a flash of true genius when she rushed into the drawing-room and said that here, where we live and work, is the true place for the poet. With her passionate interest in social questions, her conflict as artist and woman, her longing for knowledge and freedom (Aurora Leigh) is the true daughter of her age. -- Gardner Taplin, from the Introduction.
