Woman to Man
Woman to Man (1949) is the second poetry collection by Australian poet Judith Wright. It was published in Australia by Angus and Robertson and runs about 57 pages with 44 poems. Some poems were published for the first time in this book, while others had appeared earlier in magazines such as Meanjin, Southerly, and The Bulletin, as well as in other Australian poetry books.
The collection won the Grace Leven Prize for Poetry in 1949. A reviewer in The Age praised the work for its beautiful, evocative poems and its exploration of creation and motherhood. The reviewer highlighted poems like Dream and noted Wright’s strong sense of being “the maker”—the voice of the creator.
