Description
<p><b>A raw and intimate testimony of the spatial and emotional difficulty of facing the self and the other</b></p> <p><i>A Number of Stunning Attacks</i> contributes to the ongoing association of fragmented forms and women’s writing, yet the insistent repetitions and crystallized imagery produce something more coherent than a fragment and more dynamic than a single whole. Drawing on a line of innovative women’s poetics in Canada, these poems recall the radical experiments of Lisa Robertson, Erìn Moure, and Gail Scott. Intoxicated by disorientation, the reader will ask: Which city is this? Which woman is this? Which reader am I?</p> <p>”Fans of Lisa Roberston and Erín Moure will find lots to love in these pages.”<b>—<i>Open Book</i></b></p> <p>”A smart and stellar debut.”<b><i><b>—<i>Winnipeg Free Press</i></b></i></b></p>
