The world's wife

Duffy, Carol Ann2015
Book
Who? Him. The Husband. Hero. Hunk. The Boy Next Door. The Paramour. The Je tadore. Behind every famous man is a great woman - and from the quick-tongued Mrs Darwin to the lascivious Frau Freud, from the adoring Queen Kong to the long-suffering wife of the Devil himself, each one steps from her counterparts shadow to tell her side of the story in this irresistible collection. Original, subversive, full of imagination and quicksilver wit, The Worlds Wife is Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy at her beguiling best.
