Description In this powerful collection, Chelsea Rathburn seeks to voice matters once deemed unspeakable, from collisions between children and predators to the realities of postpartum depression.
Once an artist\'s model, now a mother, Rathburn knows "how hard / it is to be held in the eyes of another." Intimate and fearless, her Poems move in interlocking sect.
Still Life with Mother and Knife considers the female body, "mute and posable," as object of both art and violence.
