Howe had published essays on Goethe, Schiller and Lamartine before her marriage in the New York Review and Theological Review. Passion-Flowers was published anonymously in 1853. The book collected personal poems and was written without the knowledge of her husband, who was then editing the Free Soil newspaper The Commonwealth. Her second anonymous collection, Words for the Hour, appeared in 1857. She went on to write plays such as Leonora, The World's Own, and Hippolytus. These works all contained allusions to her stultifying marriage." (from Wikipedia). Very Good+ .
