CONTENTS: Beast at the Hearth explores the passage from childhood into sexually awakened adulthood by retelling three Grimm Brothers’ tales, all variations on the beauty and the beast story: “Snow White and red rose,” “Hans My Hedgehog,” and “The Winter Rose.” Sometimes disturbing, sometimes tender, the poems delve into both frustration and the fulfillment of desire. EDITION: Limited to 240 handsewn copies letterpress printed from handset Monotype Garamond Old Style onto recycled and acid free paper: 80 lb. Environment Felt.
