| This page is dedicated to the work and life of Anne Gray Sexton whose poetry related to the world the social anxiety of growing up as a female and living as a woman in postwar American society. Though disabled by depression and dissatisfaction with life as a suburban housewife,Anne used her poetry as therapy, which undoubtedly prolonged her life. |
 |
The purpose of this page is to honor the courage and discipline she commanded; allowing her work to overshadow her tragic suicide and attract the recognition of the literary world to her greatness as an American poetess. |
