considers Sedgwick’s poetry and textile art alongside her theoretical texts
encourages a personal as well as an academic response to Sedgwick’s work, suggesting how life-changing it can be
offers detailed suggestions for further reading Written in an accessible and direct style, Edwards indicates the impact that Sedgwick’s work continues to have on writers, readers, and literary and cultural theory today.
