The Mobius Strip Club of Grief - Bianca Stone

Descriere The Mobius Strip Club of Grief - Bianca Stone

\nThe M bius Strip Club of Grief is a collection of poems that take place in a burlesque purgatory where the living pay--dearly, with both money and conscience--to watch the dead perform scandalous acts otherwise unseen: $20 for five minutes. I'll hold your hand in my own, one ghost says. I'll tell you you were good to me. Like Dante before her, Stone positions herself as the living poet passing through and observing the land of the dead. She imagines a feminist Limbo where women run the show and create a space to navigate the difficulties endured in life. With a nod to her grandmother Ruth Stone's poem The Mobius Strip of Grief, Stone creates a labyrinthine underworld as a way to confront and investigate complicated family relationships in the hopes of breaking the never-ending cycle of grief. \nThe M�bius Strip Club of Grief is a collection of poems that take place in a burlesque purgatory where the living pay--dearly, with both money and conscience--to watch the dead perform scandalous acts otherwise unseen: $20 for five minutes.
