Publisher's Synopsis

The six poets Wheeler (Washington and Lee U.) examines connect their metaphors of shelter and constriction to the lyric as a genre, and to reserve as a poetic strategy. Each treats the lyric as an enclosure to some degree or for some part of her career, she says, and together they express a variety of attitudes towards its restrictions. Annotation
