The Problem with Having a Body
the problem with having a body unites Jessica Popeski's preoccupations with intersectional ecofeminism, epigenetics, and the inheritance of fractured, grandmaternal generational lines. It reconciles private and public conflicts, examining how political and geographical rupture and war zones generate traumatic, ancestral memory by chronicling experiences of moving through the world with dis/ability and anorexia. Accompanied by the insistence of matrilineal song, these poems ask loud questions about cyclical bouts of anxiety and depression, madness, illness, voicelessness, and disordered eating. By granting these recurring intergenerational cadences value in the present, this collection seeks to transform stress, and the legacy of its gifts, into a greater consciousness.
