The collection is an exploration of speech, of sound and strange noises, which begins with the first confrontation with language and ends with a voice beyond the dead. It is a space where Brad Pitt becomes a 16th century anatomical drawing, where a Hemingway story melts under the threat of global warming, where Derrida agonizes over eating a Dorito. Through verse forms both innovative and traditional, Jaimee Hills's debut collection explores a philosophy of the awkward, and the memento mori, in an investigation of what it means to own a body and speak through it. -- Website. 586 $a Winner of the tenth Anthony Hecht Poetry Prize, (2014). 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007100768 650 0 $a Authors, American $z Wisconsin. 650 7 $a American poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807348 650 7 $a Authors, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821764 651 7 $a Wisconsin. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204595 648 7 $a 2000 - 2099 $2 fast 700 1 $a Thwaite, Anthony, $e writer of foreword. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50011907 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171222053518.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4A3F42F4E6E711E7A3BFBD0A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
