The Answering Voice: One Hundred Love Lyrics By Women is a collection of poems edited by Sara Teasdale and published in 1917. The book features love poems written by 100 different women poets, including Edna St. Vincent Millay, Amy Lowell, and Hilda Doolittle. The poems cover a range of themes, from the ecstasy of falling in love to the heartbreak of unrequited love. The collection is notable for its focus on the voices of women, who were often marginalized in the literary world at the time of its publication. Teasdale's introduction to the book acknowledges the importance of women's voices in the realm of love poetry and sets the tone for the rest of the collection.
