From tantalizing spins on fairy tales to perilous questions of gender and identity, misled never takes words at face value. Shifts in syntax and self-mirror shifts in health and sexuality while humor, angst and eroticism become the backdrop in a passion play on words.
A girl's first crush on a boy transforms into passionate lesbian dreams and encounters.
An incomplete memory of a cliche ricochets off the familiar.
A writer's contemplation of rewriting leads to a list of things you can rewrite . . .
"You can rewrite the bus schedule / but you might just confuse yourself."
Through it all, misled dances with equivocation and delights in the enchanting ways in which life and language mislead us all.
