Blurb

The World's Wife is a collection of poems by Carol Ann Duffy published in 1999.
The World's Wife is Carol Ann Duffy's first themed collection of poems, which was first published in 1999. The collection takes characters, stories, histories and myths which focus on men, and, in Duffy's renowned feminist way, presents them anew for the public to look at the women that were previously obscured behind the men. It is a set text on some A2 and AS Syllabuses of English Literature in England and Wales.
