- Description
- An extended prose-poem (with portions lineated), presented as a dialogue between "Caroline" and "Alisoun," the latter an adaptation of the Wife of Bath. Transgresses temporal, linguistic, modal, and thematic categories, and includes references to medieval and modern social and political events and conditions, with recurrent attention to feminism, fabrics, desire, and the making of art.
