Publisher Description: A raw and intimate testimony of the spatial and emotional difficulty of facing the self and the other A Number of Stunning Attacks 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? Fans of Lisa Roberston and Erín Moure will find lots to love in these pages.--Open Book A smart and stellar debut.--Winnipeg Free Press |
