Summary: |
"The poems of Master Suffering pendulate between yield and command; the bodies of this book are supplicant yet seething - they want nothing more than to survive. But how does a woman survive? One's own healthy body helps, but illness is one of the masters of this book. Faith can be a salve for the inscrutable ailments of the body, but God is unreliable in these poems. The female bodies of Master Suffering want power; they want to control and to correct the suffering they witness and withstand" --Back cover. |
