Sharon Olds, Gwen Harwood and Dorothy Hewett: Truth, Lies, Poetry
In 2008, US poet Sharon Olds came out about her poetry, admitting that her writing is based on her own life. Since the publication of her first book, Satan Says, in 1980, when she was thirty-seven, she’d been evading questions about the biographical basis of her work.

The Gendered Gothic: Dorothy Hewett’s Alice in Wormland
Dorothy Hewett and ‘zombies' are not generally found in the same sentence. However, Hewett liberally utilises Gothic tones and imagery in her poetry.
