The publication of Fat Art, Thin Art, Sedgwicks first volume of poetry, opens up another dimension of her continuing project of crossing and re-crossing the electrified boundaries between theory, lyric, and narrative.Embodying a decades-long adventure, the poems collected here offer the most accessible and definitive formulations to appear anywhere in Sedgwicks writing on some characteristic subjects and some new ones: passionate attachments within and across genders; queer childhoods of many kinds; the performativity of a long, unconventional marriage; depressiveness, hilarity, and bliss; grave illness; despised and magnetic bodies and bodily parts. In two long fictional poems, a rich narrative momentum engages readers in the mysterious places-including Victorian novels-where characters, sexualities, and fates are unmade and made. Sedgwicks poetry opens an unfamiliar, intimate, daring space that steadily refigures not only what a critic may be, but what a poem can do.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68080229810464,"sku":"NEW0822315122","price":44.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61oCUrk0WpL.jpg?v=1793508635","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-ca\/products\/fat-art-thin-art-0822315122","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
