Iron dresses, veils nailed to an hourglass, and a sex-changing flower\/human defy or define a woman and her place in daily life and history. Queen Anne's black lace leaves holes open for a ghost. Never just coy, these characters and artifacts get up and do battle with complacency, in an all too often misogynistic world. Beasts come and go through the mirrors, a fish-man breaking through to deliver a whole-body kiss to a woman. Forests rise, and lawns “lean lethargies” to hold the reflected images of the speakers. Is there a confirmation of existence? “If she is—a silver say-so.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tupelo Press, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57459890159960,"sku":"9781961209718","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/forever-mistaken-for-ourselves","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
