| Publisher Description: C. Kubasta's &s is a collection of poetry that explores family, relationships and the meanings we make & take from these interactions, created through eavesdropping, misappropriation and found text. The ampersand knits together these imaginings, questioning whether the everyday -- an awning, a briefcase, a gasket --are what they appear, or are only the constructed symbols the poet makes then refutes. |
Contributor Bio(s): Kubasta, C.: - C. Kubasta experiments with hybrid forms, excerpted text, and shifting voices-her work has been called claustrophobic and unflinching. Her work proceeds in fits and starts, fragments and half-heard, overheard fragments. Her favorite rejection (so far) noted that one editor loved her work, and the other hated it. Her poetry has appeared in So To Speak, Stand, The Notre Dame Review, Tinderbox Poetry Review and Lemon Hound, among other places. A Lovely Box (Finishing Line Press) won the 2014 Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets Chapbook Prize. Her first full-length book All Beautiful & Useless (BlazeVOX, 2015) explores the stories of the accusing girls during the Salem witch trials and growing up with the story of Ed Gein, the notorious Wisconsinite. She teaches, lives and writes in Wisconsin with her beloved John, cat Cliff, and dog Ursula. |
