Nearly all the action in this unique novel takes place in one day. Mrs. Stevens, a poet in her seventies, is being interviewed about poetic inspiration by two journalists. Dialogue is intermingled with Mrs. Stevens' memories of encounters with the Muse. This work also investigates what it means to be both a woman and a writer, the impact of relationships, and the need for solitude.
