"I'll catch the cat that has my tongue and spit it out"

I was so excited when I discovered this book existed. If you know anything about the beat generation you know the representation of the women was nearly non-existent so stumbling on a new woman poet from my favorite literary movement was a major win in my book.

This book makes me wish so much that either she had published more when she was alive, or at least that more of her writing survived in tact rather than having been destroyed by her parents and neighbors. There is some brilliance hidden in these, so much potential in many of the fragments.

I'm grateful I found the book and highly recommend it to anyone who likes the genre to explore whats left of Elise Cowen (RIP).
