The Scorpion Season by Tara Mcgowan-Ross

In this narrative in verse, a failed academic with a dead-end domestic labour job disappears into her own consciousness in an attempt to distance herself from her circumstances. Up against poverty and political tyranny that seems to worsen by the day, she finds solace in substance abuse and destructive relationships. But as the boundaries between fantasy, reality, her past, and her present start to break down, she's left to figure out what in her life is within her control and what is simply written in the stars. A meditation on grief, pleasure, free will, and totalitarianism, Scorpion Season is an experimental and genre-bending book of poetry about a strange time to be alive.

McGowan-Ross, Tara: - Tara McGowan-Ross is a Mi'kmaq multidisciplinary artist. She is originally from Toronto, and has lived in Halifax and Montréal. She is mostly made of earth. Girth is her first book.
