Quioness lyric world is populated with stark dualities: procreation and childlessness, predator and prey, mania and depression. A hunter pursues an ill-fated fox through the woods; heaven is paved with girls who would rather drown than be born; a couple returns from their honeymoon to find a stagnant pond in their marriage bed. Through navigating these duplicities, Quiones arrives at a version of femininity that is at once fierce and crystalline, and unmistakably her own. She writes, My reflection can only growl back, in water or oil-slick or silver. This is an exercise in forgiveness. I dip my feet in. The Best Prey charts the complexity of hunger in vivid, visceral terms, and ultimately arrives at a sense of self that encompasses the contradictions of sensuality, violence, and power.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67959058891040,"sku":"NEW080717548X","price":34.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81lHuYAn1iL.jpg?v=1792857576","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-best-prey-080717548x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
