An abecedary, or alphabet book, teaches letters, the primary pieces of language and of story-making. In Ladies' Abecedary, each letter is a woman, each woman is a poem, and each poem is a narrative of female identity. These micro-biographies-in-verse present a series of anonymous characters (historical and mythological, contemporary and composite, unique and universal) in a collection that reveals "the diverse and complex nature of women's interior and external lives." Letter by letter, Ladies' Abecedary "exemplifies the importance of the project to reclaim voice, agency, and equality for women," and raises a remark about how a woman's story is told.
