Strip: Poems | Jessica Abughattas
3 posts | 2 read
"In fragmented and lyrical poems of the body and desire, Abughattas writes against expectations to explore what it means to occupy space. Set in places as varied as Hollywood and Palestine, these poems navigate the complicated terrain of inhabiting a body that is itself a world of contradictions"--

Got this book in this weekend and already finished! I‘ll be sending it along with A Bound Woman is a Dangerous thing in the mail tomorrow! #lmpbc @rachelm @WanderingBookaneer @SamAnne

TheBookKeepers @WanderingBookaneer I wasn‘t in love with it. The author‘s intelligence was very evident and I felt like many of the poems were above my head (intellectually) as a novice poetry reader. I think it would have been more impactful if I had read some of the references she said inspired her poems and/or more familiar with the women featured. The middle section was my favorite 3y
WanderingBookaneer I listened to the audiobook, which helped. I also Googled a lot of the women. 3y
