The Fix - Lisa Wells - Bog

Proceeding from Helene Cixous's charge to ""kill the false woman who is preventing the live one from breathing"", The Fix forges that woman's reckoning with her violent past, with her sexuality, and with a future unmoored from the trappings of domestic life. These poems of lyric beauty and unflinching candor negotiate the terrain of contradictory desire-often to darkly comedic effect.
