A dazzling introduction to a thrilling new voice in contemporary feminist poetry. In this multi-faceted collection of odes, anecdotes, sonnets and prose, Olivia Gatwood weaves together the trials and triumphs of growing up and explores the many ways that fear and violence can be internalized in the female body. Angry, powerful and piercingly candid, it is about what it means to be a girl and a woman in today's world and the challenge of briefly being both. How does one grow from a girl to a woman in a world wracked by violence? What is the meaning of bravery? What happens to our bodies that make us who we are?
