Throughout, Kirsten Kaschock's gestures are contemporary, jagged, and stop-start, wonderfully torqued and rippling with unexpected flights, breaks, and drops. After centuries of literary glamourizing of young, dead heroines, this poet declares a preference for survival, including its inevitable toll of aging, toward a more practical and elemental transcendence. These poems show us an extension and evolution of the legacy of Hopkins and Berryman--a sort of sprung verse for the twenty-first century, an urgent engagement with the world so obliquely signaled here.\"--Carolyne Wright, final judge, Blue Lynx Prize 2019\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kirsten Kaschock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynx House Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.70w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780899241746","brand":"Lynx House Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48405938045065,"sku":"9780899241746","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_67df7c14-cb01-4894-85e8-c2c5135d3c43.jpg?v=1790059785","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/explain-this-corpse-9780899241746","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
