Who is Snow White from The Complete Poems and what is their importance? The_Complete_Poems English & Literature Snow White | The Complete Poems

Sexton's Snow White is as innocent and beautiful as we remember her...... but she is also vapid, superficial, and dull-witted. Through her characterization of Snow White, Sexton is satirizing the way in which fairy tales portray female protagonists. Sexton describes a Snow White whose only virtue is her beauty...... Snow White, thus becomes, a powerless symbol of dated femininity.
