Stiletto Feminism for Beginners by Helen Cox

Stiletto Feminism for Beginners by Helen Cox

In this provocative first full collection, novelist and poet Helen Cox explores the female experience of sex, power, violence and body politics.

Marrying sensual love poems with searing commentary on the institutions that seek to diminish women, and their right to unapologetic self-expression, this book says what others dare not.

The poems in this volume are accompanied by exclusive portraits taken by photographer Andrew Douglas which complement Cox's raw and potent imagery.

Whether acknowledging those who indulge in less-accepted corners of sexuality, including the BDSM and DLG lifestyle, or squaring up to misogyny directly, Cox's work remains unflinching throughout.

Helen Cox is a Yorkshire-born novelist and poet.
