Description

Picasso, I Want My Face Back is a collection of poems that weave together art, landscape and memory. The book opens with a long poem in Dora Maar's voice, exploring the cubistic style of Picasso's iconic painting "The Weeping Woman". Through these interlocking reflections, Nichols invites us to enter the shifting surfaces of Maar's mind as she navigates her journey of self-reclamation.

The poems in this collection are a nuanced exploration of the human experience, reflecting the fragmented nature of memory and identity. With its unique blend of artistic and personal themes, Picasso, I Want My Face Back is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in poetry and the intersection of art and life.
