Including internationally award-winning and shortlisted pieces, these strongly felt poems interrogate what it means to be a woman in a world where the female body still preordains so much for the person it contains. Deliberately weaving in and out of, and cross-referencing, each other, these poems reveal multiple perspectives on the same or related narratives. At times unabashedly political, this book plumbs the poets own experiences of birth, death, loss, treatment\/mistreatment and place in the worldas a woman, as an immigrant, as a parent, as a former environment journalist\/author depicting the decline of our planet, as a human being questioning our treatment of others based on lines on a map and so many lengths\/of slick red tape. Collectively these poems strive to cross the boundary between body and soul. To be filled to overflowing. Emptied. To be simultaneously half-full, half-empty. To drink deeply of this one precious cup and find meaning in the traces of what remains'lifting our hearts\/out of emptied cups\/and away with them\/into the heavens'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Secret Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48285128622425,"sku":"4429","price":5.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/8921\/4278\/files\/OutofEmptiedCups_AnneCasey_SalmonPoetry.jpg?v=1714651013","url":"https:\/\/www.thesecretbookstore.live\/products\/out-of-emptied-cups-anne-casey-salmon-poetry","provider":"The Secret Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
