She has been self-exiled in England but is moving to Switzerland shortly. Originally attacked for suggesting that a couple of standard pieces of literature might be removed from the school syllabus and replaced by writing by living women, her life has become the subject of the sort of storm of defamation already practised on others perceived to be threatening the values of the government.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Bloodaxe Books","offers":[{"title":"My Secret Life: Selected Poems | Krisztina Tóth | Paperback | 9781780377032 | New | Poetry 1632957","offer_id":50703406956802,"sku":"1632957","price":38.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71o-8vNdHBL.jpg?v=1791630516","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/my-secret-life-selected-poems","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
