“Emily Bowles’s poetry is subtly exquisite, but packs a punch.”
–Mandi Isaacson
In lines drawn taut as corset strings, Emily Bowles explores the complex nature of gender relations and the domestic across the Western canon and within our twenty-first century kitchens. Poems on the historical figures of Jonathan Swift and his ward, Stella, offer an opportunity to scry truths about our own situations and predicaments. Fraught and playful by turns, a pas de deux of desire and power, history and the present, dances within this slim chapbook.
–Sarah Sadie, founder of Odonata Creative and author of We Are Traveling Through Dark at Tremendous Speeds
