Seeing the Body: Poems
Angebote / Angebote:
Poems and photographs collide in this intimate collection, challenging the invisible, indefinable ways mourning takes up residence in a body, both before and after life-altering loss.
In radiant poems-set against the evocative and desperate backdrop of contemporary events, pop culture, and politics-Rachel Eliza Griffiths reckons with her mother's death, aging, authority, art, black womanhood, memory, and the American imagination. The collision of text and imagery offers an associative autobiography, in which narratives of language, absence, and presence are at once saved, revised, and often erased. Seeing the Body dismantles personal and public masks of silence and self-destruction to visualize and celebrate the imperfect freedom of radical self-love.
From "Color Theory & Praxis (II)"
tell me, what color does your future have? &
what will my unborn children forgive
when they are asked to love you?
