Synopsis
Preoccupied by haunting, poisoned places and bodies, Puro explores the intersections of personal history and social forces, integrating representations of femininity and the body, creating an undercommons, a multiplicity, a “we.”

Review
“I love these poems. They are romantic, full of stuff, shape shifting, gendered, dark and political. And I am never bored. I have not read these poems before. They are not outside their canon yet they improve and expand it. They’ve got some pain and some weight. I mean they’re muscularly true.” (Eileen Myles)

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Collectible/Gift Quality. Flawless and probably unread. It will be bubble-wrapped and carefully packed in a sturdy box to ensure safe transit. "Nina Puro so moves me, through both an open hearted, musical expansiveness and a self-honest skepticism about the ultimate powers of language and insight. Everywhere in this remarkable first book I feel the writing bringing me closer to the life lived--it speaks of and to that life with intimacy and vulnerability. But Puro is no confessional, and their perspective is not singular or merely personal. Each image is multiplied and transformed into another, and the opacity that results is complex. This is a poet with 360-degree vision, especially around anything having to do with gender and sexuality: 'we are all part of a current, it is said, but perhaps it is dark.' Each Tree Could Hold a Noose or a House made me think of the poetry of both Adrienne Rich and George Oppen in the courageous power of its imagination, in its will to change, and its refusal of the blandishments of the period style. It's that good." -- David Rivard. Seller Inventory # ABH4702
