We Shed Our Skin Like Dynamite Paperback / softback

Part of the First Poets Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Winner of the 2021 Ottawa Book Award for English FictionIn her debut collection of poetry, Conyer Clayton hovers in the ether, grasping wildly for a fleeting sense of certitude.

Through experiences with addiction and co-dependence, sex and art, nature and death, she grapples for transcendence while exploring what it means to disengage.

What is revealed when you allow yourself to truly feel?

What do you ask for to carry you into life, and where do you land when this fails? And when you are finally, beautifully, emptied out, who are you?

The poems in We Shed Our Skin Like Dynamite wonder aloud amidst tangled revelations, and yearn to be lifted away.
