<p><strong><em>With less content in my life<br \/>
\nI am infinitely more content<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
\n<p>Against the backdrop of a sibling\u2019s death, an eating disorder, and a few very dismal dating relationships, <em>Villa Negativa<\/em> looks for laughter behind darkness: the intruder who politely removes her shoes, the fabricator whose closest relationship is with fibreglass, the anorexic who sends the Diet Coke back because it tastes too good. Meditative and mischievous, confessional and philosophical, sincere and sly by turns, Sharon McCartney\u2019s seventh collection articulates an essential truth of self-knowledge\u2014that \u201cto perceive something, we have to be able \/ to stand away from it.\u201d<\/p>
