Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Winner of the 2024 May Sarton New Hampshire Poetry PrizeMarcy Rae Henry's speaker roams from New Orleans to New Delhi in death is a mariachi, a raw yet nuanced exploration of the shifting nature of identity, spirituality, and place. Reckoning with death through the lens of Buddhist ideology, the speaker technicolors her world: a blue-green whiptail lizard reproduces through parthenogenesis, golden oil glistens in petrichor, even the morphine in a grandmother's IV takes on a kaleidoscopic sheen. Henry engages texts from 1970's electronica to molcajetes and tejolotes this intersectional, eco-feminist exploration of the body and the soul, their limits, and their excesses. In her formally inventive and full-throated debut, Henry sings of the liminal, of the "soul separating from skin," of words that are "useful as bones." The speaker names what she sees and lets it go. She never tells anyone that she's time travelling.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Marcy Rae Henry sings so much more than the body electric; she sings a cuerpo bilingue, a body gone awry amid perimenopause, a body nevertheless moonbright and halfnaked among the sagebrush. Henry peppers the poems of this scintillating chapbook with evocative housings and tangible accoutrements: a golden scarab in Egypt, the telltale signs of downsized childhood ('dry foods, frozen fruit, / packets of vegetable soup'), the 'pastel art and fake plants' of a mammogram waiting room. Henry's lyrics bridge English and Spanish like the open-ended promise of a multilingual lifespan, which is to say they are pointed and timely and yield surprising portmanteaus: 'vaccine which is vacuna / in Spanish and sounds like a cow in a cradle.' Her speakers confuse want for want ('quiero querer means i want to want / but could also mean i want to love') and wound (as in 'tightly') for wound (as in 'painful'). They traverse the planet in search of-and escaping from-lovers like time-traveling globetrotters, arriving finally in a tightly composed ekphrasis in response to Dieter Roth's Karnickelköttelkarnickel, a poem that centers around the reappearance of an ex and the summer solstice in Iceland, where the 'midnight sun stayed in the sky the way a flag stays on the moon.' Whether luminously celestial or seared into the heart's memory, Marcy Rae Henry reminds us that 'the body is where it all begins.'-Diego Báez, author of Yaguareté White: PoemsPrepare yourself, reader. These are not poems that sit still on the page. No, these poems are dancers-leaping, twisting, roaming, and firmly rooted in the body. Henry's quick-witted and effusive voice jeté's expertly between English and Spanish; surprising imagery and unexpected allusion; personal narrative and philosophical insight. Whether considering mental health, travel, rabbits, sex, mammographs, relationships, or evolution-this is a poet deeply alive in the absurdity, eroticism, and beauty of the world.-Teresa Dzieglewicz, author of Something Small of How to See a River.…
