Experimental Poetry Through the Lens of Urban Space

Skoulding examines how experimental women poets engage with the city as a changing, relational space. The study places close attention to poetic language and form alongside theories of urban space, tracing a mutual process: cities shape poetic work, while poems articulate alternative ways of seeing contemporary urban life. Global connections are part of the book’s frame, positioning these writers’ formal innovations within broader questions about how cities are imagined and understood. A focused work of literary criticism, it links women’s experimental poetry to spatial theory and the dynamics of contemporary urban environments.
