With wonder, ritual, and irreverence, Kitt Healy‘s The Hundredth Hour is an offering of her own spiritual and animal births. While each poem is deft and deeply curious, it is in the collage of these individual revelations that Healy also offers a healing-justice blueprint for the communal future we build with and of our bodies. Whether in the liminal between infant breath and bath steam, or the intricacies of maternal grief mirrored on a yellow-pollened river, The Hundredth Hour invites us to hold both our ordinary and our holy dreams close.

–Tegan Nia Swanson, Things We Found When the Water Went Down

 

Kitt Healy‘s words are a love letter to those in the heights and depths of early motherhood. They connect us through deliberate celebration of inner wisdom, grit, loneliness, and metamorphosis. The Hundredth Hour shines a light on an inner universe that sometimes feels beyond our sight.

–Laura Williams, PT, DPT, WCS, Founder of Hearth Healing

The Hundredth Hour explores the experience of becoming a mother, in all of its delirium, joy, magic and brutality. The poems are both heartfelt and absurd, particular and universal. They both describe and embody the deep weirdness of suddenly arriving on the strange planet that is parenthood, where the socks will never match, the hours both race and stall, and a kind of unhinged love sets up shop at the center of one’s self, changing us for better, for worse, forever.

Kitt Healy is a mother, writer, facilitator and movement strategist for sustainable agriculture organizations. She is of Irish, German and Sicilian settler descent and currently lives on the present and ancestral lands of the Ho-Chunk people in Madison, WI.  She has an MS in Agroecology from UW-Madison and a BA in Political and Social Thought from University of Virginia. When her hands are not writing, they are likely busy planting seeds, sprinkling herbs on something tasty, or wrangling her two rascally children.
