TREAT YOURSELF TO OUR PUNK AS FUCK BOOKS
SARAH ELIZABETH SCHANTZ
From the dredges, they come with songs and hunger. They come to us. They come to us in this delicate, hand-sewn chapbook with its chartreuse lace binding, containing their heaving story. Experience them in Schantz’s new chapbook.
Two poetic prose narratives converge in The Inevitable by Jade Lascelles to explore what it means to be a vulnerable body living in a hard, violent world. The diptych asks us to lean in close to examine the crossroads; how might we romanticize brutality? How might we respond to being invaded? What is the unavoidable or the inevitability of certain trajectories?
As Joan Approaches Infinity by Kika Dorsey is a dark comedy about a middle-aged woman and pivotal moments that spiral from her ecstasy and despair. Join this raucous ride through the mind of a flawed but lovable character by ordering your copy today!
