Shimmering with diamond-cut precision, \u003cem\u003eFabulosa\u003c\/em\u003e underscores Rigby's observation that \"I never write \/ without measuring, each line \/ hooking a quicksilver hunger.\" There is no bloat in this book; it is exquisitely hewn. Underpinning the collection is a keen interest in cinema, fashion, feminism, transformation, and textuality (from ars poeticas to portmanteaus to ekphrastics). Seamed with goldshine and darkness, we find in these fireball poems a \"wilderness \/ glanced through the bull's eye.\" As the title suggests, \u003cem\u003eFabulosa\u003c\/em\u003e is indeed absolutely fabulous! -Simone Muench\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 76\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.18 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 10, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41724285059207,"sku":"9781956907094","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/719149178d08217a408c03ee770655ac.webp?v=1734098646","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/fabulosa-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
