Images of mirrors and reflection have long played a substantial role in literature by women, used to convey ineffable psychological states, the countless images that define and complicate women s lives, and much more. In "Mirrors of Entrapment and Emancipation," Leila Rahimi Bahmany focuses in particular on the work of two major women writers, Persian poet Forugh Farrokhzad (1935 67) and the American Sylvia Plath (1932 63), exploring the various ways that these two artists deployed mirrors and reflections as sites of entrapment or emancipation.
