Publisher Description: Thrumming with the triune hungers of mind, mouth, and spirit, Lisa Russ Spaar's fifth book plumbs daily life in order to transcend it, discovering and embodying the sacred and erogenous as it does so. Seductive and symphonic, Orexia is the latest glory by the "ringleader of a stunning lexicon" (Shenandoah). |
