This journal represents the community of women who joined forces across the globe on January 21, 2017 for one of the largest demonstrations in political history. The grassroots movement united women and their allies on all seven continents, and marches were organized in an estimated 81 countries – from the thousands of women who marched across the National Mall in Washington, DC to the group of researchers at work in Paradise Bay in Antarctica. Protesters marched on Trafalgar Square in London, the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, and Hibiya Park in Tokyo. Worldwide, an estimated five million people showed solidarity with women – women of color, immigrant women, disabled women, queer women, trans women, and the next generation of women. As the day of the march approached, a call to arms lit up social media, and women everywhere began knitting pink, cat-eared hats for themselves and other marchers.

This new, select edition of Wilfred Owen's letters provides a fresh understanding of the poet's life in his own words. Wilfred Owen's fame as one of the great war poets of the twentieth century is unsurpassed, with Dulce et Decorum est possibly the defining piece of World War literature. Owen's letters reveal the man behind the cultural icon; human with all his foibles, whose 25 years were marked by great highs and lows, by emerging modernity, and the violence of war. Evocative, lyrical, and often surprisingly funny, the letters act as both autobiography and companion to the famous war poems. He was both an accomplished poet and one of the finest letter-writers of the twentieth century. Accompanied by new notes and new introduction, as well as previously redacted and omitted material, the new edition of Owen's Selected Letters brings together past and contemporary scholarship to provide fresh insights into Owen's character and poetic development.
