Description
CAN POETRY SAVE A LIFE?
In her third collection of poems, Susan Deborah King bears witness to a soul's transformation in the wake of a breast cancer diagnosis and subsequent mastectomy. She is consumed with outrage at the possible systemic causes of her disease. She holds the earth and beloved people close as she contemplates her end. She connects with and feels the suffering of others. In One-Breasted Woman, King offers poems that are utterly alive: vivid with fear, heightened awareness, anger, tenderness, sorrow, playfulness, and even joy.
