Description
Poetry. LGBT Studies. "Sara is a lyrical spirit that is one part child, one part poet, and all visionary. Sara Woods' concise, delightful prose moves quickly yet resonates, like a fire that catches fast and smolders for a long time. Like some kind of reincarnated American Henri Michaux, Woods manages to make these prose poems both hilariously absurd and devastatingly sincere."—Nathan Hoks
