Insightfully showcasing the inner divide, this poetic memoir aims to break down the larger lies of poetic form and the smaller dishonesties within the self. A fixation on medical language and the crucial aspects of what it means to be human, to love, and to be loved are woven throughout this collection. Featuring compelling lesbian themes, this is a humorous book of self-discovery that conjures up all the joy, toughness, and melancholy of being a girl, both elegant and scruffy at once.
