Person Under - Paperback

by Paige Thomas (Author)

Person Under renders a careful portrait of two sisters and their mother. In this book-length erasure of guardianship renewal papers, Paige Thomas retrieves fragments of her family's voices to depose a legal document's authority. With each act of obstruction informed by interviews, original illustrations, and meticulously tracked collage materials, this debut visual poetry collection disrupts the finality of official language as three women transcend the pages that defined their lives.
