Produktbeschreibung
Poetry. Women's Studies. "'Lift off the roof / of your skull' writes Kate Angus in this confident, wonderful debut, and I do indeed feel my mind dangerously opened by the clarity and intimacy of these intelligent, warm, sad, funny, genuine poems. This poet takes us with her as she walks through the world, often alone, often filled with a happy despair, always hopeful, always thinking of distant others, including us, her readers. This book does not merely describe, but enacts a faith in life, and in poetry's necessity. This is the poetry for those of us who don't just want but need to 'always and silently unseal everything,' to see what we can feel and know."--Matthew Zapruder
