O Cidadan - Erin Moure - Bog

This candid and passionate consideration of citizenship viewed through the feminine lens examines borders in language and in the body and explores ways in which nation and community may be reconsidered. These poems pulse, shift, overlap, echo, and capture sensual and political hinges in our social topography. Drawing on puns, shadows, images, charts, and crosswords, Erin Moure's poetic forms belie any settled, safe habitation of the page, extending the textual possibilities of language and expression. This is the final volume in a decade-long trilogy of work exploring language, feeling, responsibility, and identity within liminal territories.
