Bøger af Nancy Lynee Woo

Bearing the Juice of It All, by Nancy Lynée Woo, is a poetry chapbook that invites the reader on a daring exploration of developing womanhood. These poems engage a loose narrative voice grounded in emotion, pulled forward by relentlessly imagistic language that blurs the lines between dream logic and waking states, mythology and modernity, expectations and reality. The collection questions where the locus of sight is-in her body or his? Reaching into the crevices of a maturing female psyche, the poetic arc probes into themes of sexuality and motherhood, abuse and transformation, abortion and partnership, independence and sisterhood, love and family-all ensconced in the poet's incorrigible optimism and dedication to healing. While these poems may lead into dark alleys, they emerge to illuminate the belief that women are inherently imbued with the right to direct their own bodies, thoughts, voices, and desires.

Nancy Lynee Woo's first chapbook of poetry, Rampant, performs an exploration of cultural identity, the nature of love, and the anxiety of existence in a range of poetic forms.

What does it mean to say someone does something "like a girl"? This booklet is a collection of poetry, prose and art in response to the theme of feminine identity. Like a Girl: The Pre-Show! was created specially for the LA Zine Fest 2015. The first edition was a handmade, stapled zine. We are proud to now bring the booklet to a wider audience as a perfect-bound paperback booklet. All the beautiful formatting of the zine remains the same. Why is it called the pre-show? This zine is a sneak peek of a larger anthology called Like a Girl: Perspectives on Feminine Identity. Visit LucidMooseLit.com to stay updated on its release date! Cover art by Fernando Gallegos.
