Poetry. "Identified, pressed, touched 'repeatedly or restlessly,' pleasured, hankered after, pointed at with the finger. Laura Wetherington means everything, all of everything.

Strong, cathartic language on subjects ranging as wide as orgasm as deep as music, as timely as place, these debut poems speak clearly to history both personal and liberatory.
