From gleaning to toothaches, across anxieties and economic precarity, Womer writes with gorgeous attention to language and to sound, creating a book quivering with insights. I loved this book.-TaraShea Nesbit, author of Beheld Brenna Womer's cost of living is meditative, subtle, and moving; it bursts with surprising and dynamic language that circles familial histories, complex intimacies, class, memory, and origin. Deeply intimate and carefully observed, Womer's writing reveals the expansive possibilities of both poetry and prose.-K-Ming Chang, author of Bestiary Budgeting for Sensodyne while finding "no place, yet, to sell a memory," the narrator in Brenna Womer's hybrid collection, cost of living, knows both the heavy expense of connection and the ache of paying for one's place in the world. The weight of expectations press into the grit of love, leaving behind indelible scratches. Womer's work will leave you similarly marked.-Kristine Langley Mahler, author of Curing Season
