The result is a fantastical poetic work that sheds light on what bodies--especially female ones--endure, probing the full range of experiences from pleasure and hope to deep loss and trauma.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese poems are piercingly humorous, sexy, and peppered with startling absurdities, but are grounded by an undercurrent of nostalgia (and a soup on of feminist rage): mercury reproduces like funhouse mirrors, oysters are whole notes dropped into eternal song, cancer is a surly character taking and discarding lovers, a domestic chore turns dark as a mother channels her inner Lady Macbeth. Lush imagery melds with organic rhythms to spawn a visceral experience, a tendon-and-muscle-driven engine that readers can feel racing within their own bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49742895120657,"sku":"NGR9781774390283","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1774390280.jpg?v=1751444957"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-carol-harvey-steski.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
