| Summary |
"The female body is a political space. C+nto enters the private lives of women from the butch counterculture, telling the inside story of the protests they led in the '90s to reclaim their bodies as their own -- their difficult balance between survival and self-expression. History, magic, rebellion, party, and sermon vibrate through Joelle Taylor's cantos to uncover these underground communities forged by women. Part-memoir and part-conjecture, Taylor explores sexuality and gender in poetry that is lyrical, expansive, imagistic, epic, and intimate. C+nto is a love poem, a riot, a late night, and an honouring."-- Back cover. |
