Description
Victoria Kennefick's Egg/Shell is a powerful exploration of the complexities of early motherhood and miscarriage. This diptych of monologues, innovative hybrid forms, and piercing lyrics delves into themes of identity, relationships, and the human experience. Kennefick's poetry is marked by its emotional complexity, formal ingenuity, and wit, making Egg/Shell a standout in contemporary poetry. A bold and generous voice, she breaks new ground with this follow-up to her best-selling Eat or We Both Starve. A deeply personal and thought-provoking work, Egg/Shell is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in innovative and emotionally charged poetry.
