The Body Beside Herself-Julianne Neely-min

The Body Beside Herself

The winner of our 5th Annual Chapbook Contest, The Body Beside Herself is a stunning hybrid work that uses form & subject matter to explore the sexual female body in relation to culture, academic institution, & inherited cliches. The writing is unafraid of these anarchic spaces. The book continuously dissects itself & rejects tidy imagery allowing you to meander in your understanding of what you’ve just read.
