This paper examines the poetry collection entitled Meadowlands by the contemporary American poet Louise Gluck (1943) from a feminist perspective. Most of Gluck's characters are feminine, because from the beginning of her early career, gender roles take place in her conflicted attitudes about sexuality and power. She basically concerns with the complicated intersections among womanhood, power relations, and desire. The female speaker she presents swings between the fragile victim and the grandiose goddess. Highlighting her contribution to American women's poetry, the study focuses on her revisionist interpretation of the Odyssey; the myth of Odysseus, Penelope, Circe and Telemachus. In Gluck's version of the myth, Odysseus' journey is not the central point as it is in the original myth. Furthermore, she focuses on the negatives of that journey: it is the same ten years journey, but away from Ithaca. Unlike most poets who revisited the Odyssey, Gluck is less interested in Odysseus while at the same time she provides the other people around him (the "minor" characters such as Penelope (Odysseus' wife), Telemachus (his son), and Circe (the sorceress goddess with whom he has love affair), with a great portion of her focus. she makes focal points out of those less significance characters.
