For poetry readers, scholars, and students, Lerner (Royal Society of Literature) analyzes the work of female poets from the seventeenth century to the mid-twentieth century, focusing on the reading experience rather than feminist theory. He considers the poems in terms of form, historical context, themes such as love, friendship, or being trapped in marriage, and understanding them within the context of various arguments about women's poetry, such as including it in a separate canon or to study it simple because it exists. Poets discussed include Emily Brontë, George Eliot, Aphra Behn, Emily Dickinson, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and Sylvia Plath. Some comparison to works by men is incorporated.
