Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. This book is unlike anything I have ever read, and is so unique I will likely not find anything like it again. A collection of feminist poetry, authored by a diverse community of LGBTQ, indigenous, black and people of color, which has been rendered in beautiful comic-style graphical format. Each poem and each rendering is unique in both style and content - some are quite challenging and others are immediately just mind-blowingly beautiful. When they work, as many of them did for me, the sum of the parts (Artwork and Poetry) is elevated to a level that’s hard to describe unless you’re seeing it. (I think its the same kind of transformation that an emotive movie score adds to your appreciation of the plot-line of the movie). Dominant themes include pregnancy, sexism, loss, grief, pregnancy/birth and miscarriage, climate change, beauty and aging, parenting, love, and marginalization. The first poem confused me, and there were a number that I found I could not grasp. Overall though, the work is simply stunning and I am so glad to have discovered and read this book. An awesome study guide is provided at the end - once I stumbled upon it and read it, so many ideas were triggered that I had to thumb back to re-read my favorites. Poetry and art are both such intimate and subjective joys - there were clearly some entries that resonated more deeply and immediately with me. I had a lot of favorites, but the two that stand out the most are: Good Bones - An achingly lovely parental reflection on the ( futility or hopefulness ?) it takes to believe one can still raise a child to love and cherish the best in our world. The artwork on this one is heartbreaking. Units and Increments - Aging sucks, particularly for women in our gendered society, and this poem, and it’s gorgeous rendering, nails it. A great big thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and the authors for an advance review copy of this exquisite book. All thoughts presented are my own. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
