Beschreibung:
CM Burroughs is Associate Professor of Poetry at Columbia College Chicago; she is the author of two collections of poetry: The Vital System (Tupelo Press, 2012) and Master Suffering (Tupelo Press, 2021).
This book is full of the questions and uncomfortable uncertainties that grief and the body bring; it is also full of speakers who are determined, and then unsure. The female bodies of Master Suffering want power to survive; they want to control and to correct the suffering they witness and withstand. But wanting can lead to suffering, too, and make speakers like Burroughs ask: "Why / should I have wanted so much / as to threaten my being?"
