Poetry. Who is "Jenny"? Well, who isn't she? Tara Rebele, in her debut, crafts a series of alternately defiant, sublime, racy and hilarious monologues in the latest hybrid text in the Slope Editions catalog. Prosaic, poetic and rooted in the performance arts, this book promises to help redefine "feminism" for the 21st century.
