Exorcism Lessons in the Heartland
Exorcism Lessons in the Heartland | Cara Dees
1 post | 1 read | 3 to read
Poetry. "Navigating a landscape of loss with language that is both lyrically charged and freshly brutal, Cara Dees has given us a first book that is unexpected and burning with life. The weight of absence fills the pages, but the world is not without light and resurrection. Suffused with feeling and fueled by a restless search for a way of being in the world, this is a beautiful book alive with humanity."?Ada Lim?

In Cara Dees‘ Exorcism Lessons in the Heartland, language and memory hover unflinchingly above the margins between the knowable and unknowable. Set amidst a backdrop of Midwestern farmlands, Dees parses the visceral details surrounding the loss of both parents, recollections and dreamscapes achingly entwining on the page. #poetry
