Liner Notes for Getting Out Without Catching Fire is an invocation to action, encouraging readers to engage with the work of survivors. Mich�le Saint-Michel picks up the shattered pieces to create a mosaic of experiences and memories in brilliant technicolor. Close to the bone, these ekphrastic and free verse poems still find a way to glow and dance in the golden light from the fire. Amidst the collection's electric urgency and quantum slipping, these poems illuminate the indomitable spirit of survivors and hint at the transformative power of feminine relationships, art, and music. Brave, devastating, and essential. This is the Standard (high-legibility) edition for Amazon Kindle. Also available in Deluxe (illustrated) edition.
