Feeling All the Kills

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Helen Calcutt

Feeling All the Kills is a dazzling new collection that breaks the poets silence on what it means to experience and live in the wake of a violent assault and rape. Calcutt weaves stunning musicality with raw, unhindered storytelling, as the poems both collectively, and in their individual power, explore the distinctly connected, yet fractured selves of sexual being, mother and abused person. Through the poems breathtaking and vital vocabulary Calcutt brings the physical, emotional, and sexual nuances of life to the foreground, with strength, subtlety and beauty, and courageously harnesses a sense of ownership over such a lasting trauma. At the heart of this collection is a personal desire to navigate a way back to a sensual, whole-feeling self, to shamelessly feel all -- with authenticity and power.
