The Mender - Paperback

by Hannah Dulaney (Author)

In her debut collection, The Mender, Hannah Dulaney explores her expanding relationships with death, sexuality, and the divine through the lens of her longings. Dulaney's dry wit, distinct lyrical voice, and keen sense for articulating matters of the soul takes the reader captive as she navigates grief in her early twenties. As mirthful as they are profound, Dulaney's poems will have you staring down the barrel of her naked inner world as she confronts the absurd and often grotesque nature of complicated grief. With each word, you'll feel as though she is pushing you off a steep cliff only to rescue you again and again. The Mender is nothing short of an excavation of the human heart after loss; Dulaney leaves no flesh untouched.
